750i-iL

Isn't it just "750iL", like the boot badge?

...So, you want the "007" version? With Nokia tie-in?

You've misinterpreted. That table refers to the engine as being in both the 750i (Europe only) and the 750iL (worldwide).

The "L" suffix means "Long wheelbase" (or "Limousine")

It's very definitely just 750i, or 750il

Two different cars. Both used the M73B54TU, I think the 007 car was pre-LCI and therefore would not have been the TU engine.
