Highlights
- Original and well preserved, having been dry-stored when not in use
- 3.4-litre NA inline-six mated to a four-speed ZF automatic gearbox
- Impeccably presented inside and out
The Appeal
Designing a replacement for the utterly sublime E9 was never to be an easy task and yet, the introduction of the E24 6 Series proved that BMW was on a winning streak. Penned by the great Paul Bracq, the E24 was intended to be a luxurious GT, offered in two-door coupé specification only and its ‘shark nose’ styling has gone down in history as some of BMW’s best work.
We’re delighted to offer this beautifully preserved 635 CSI which remains an original and supremely usable example. With its sumptuous cream leather interior, four-speed ZF automatic gearbox and strong 3.4-litre straight-six, it’s the perfect choice for long-distance road trips and we’re deeply envious of its next lucky owner.
