Description
1985 BMW 635 CSi (E24) AUTO - FOR RECOMMISSIONINGThe BMW E24 635CSi is a classic grand tourer produced between 1978 and 1989, known for its inline-six engine and 'shark nose' styling. It is highly regarded as a 'Gentleman's Express' and is a sought-after classic. The 635CSi featured a 3. 5-litre inline-six engine (M30/ M90), with later models (1988–1989) using the M30B35 engine. Early models produced around 218 hp, while later models with catalytic converters produced 211 hp (155 kW). It was available with a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission. Known for its 'shark nose' aggressive front styling, it was often equipped with BBS cross-spoke wheels and specialized front/ rear spoilers. This 1985 example starts and drives well, selecting all gears through the smooth auto-transmission. The brakes are in need of some attention but will bring the vehicle to a stop. In 'barn find' condition- the dust and debris are only superficial- this could be a very promising classic with some light recommissioning and proper valet. The panels and wheel arches look to be solid with some predictable under-body corrosion. Unsurprising for a 41 year old 635. A large history file file accompanies the vehicle. Mileage is showing as 132982. With less than 370 examples still on UK roads- this little sleeper, ripe for some restoration and recommisioning could prove a very good buy indeedEstimated at only £4000-6000This vehicle is located near Rugby, Warwickshire from where it will need to be collected.
