1981 BMW M535i (E12) For Sale by Auction

This lot will be auctioned via Classic Car Auctions, The September Classic Car Sale 2022 on Saturday the 24th of September.
From the first generation of 5-Series (E12) cars, the M535 was the first series-production saloon to wear the now distinctive M badge
Hand-assembled at BMW Motorsport’s Garching plant, 1, 410 were produced between April 1980 and May 1981
Just 450 were built in right-hand drive and only 408 of those found buyers in the UK at a list price of £13, 745
This particular example spent several years off the road before being entrusted to Malton Coachworks in 2014. It was fully stripped down including removal of windscreens and re-painted in its original colour of Alpine White. The interior was re-upholstered with a brand new headlining, new carpets, re-finished woodwork and the original Recaro seats were re-upholstered in black leather. It was then treated to new Motorsport stripes as original and a new Bluetooth CD player and speakers fitted
The engine was removed from the car and fully stripped down and rebuilt including a new crankshaft, new pistons, con rods, all new shells, oil pump, full set of fuel injectors and rebuilt cylinder head. The BMW was also treated to a new clutch, slave cylinder, overhauled prop-shaft, new front and rear brake discs and pads, new handbrake shoes and cables, new rear shockers, new front springs, the radiator was re-cored and all four door central locking motors replaced
It's now outstanding on the road and surprisingly quick. The strong rebuilt engine has impressive power and performance, the 5-speed gearbox is lovely to use and the car handles and brakes superbly
The car presents beautifully with excellent straight bodywork, stunning paintwork and the interior is crisp and fresh. With almost £25, 000 of receipts, this little 'Beemer' has had a serious programme of work that means it can now been used and enjoyed with confidence or placed in any collection of Munich's finest
In top condition, this is a fabulous example of the one that started it all, the M535i

My BMW 528i Manual saloon for sale. A regretful sale but I've decided I want the funds to put towards an E32 or E39 V8. The car runs and drives perfectly with no knocks or rattles, and it's just had a new battery fitted. Only downside is there is a bit of paint fade on the roof and boot. No rust on the car, it was dry ...
