BMW M635CSi (1986)
BMW M6
M-Power at its most elegant
rare, too. Just 524 right hand drive examples were produced between 1985/89. Unique amongst sports coupes, the M635 offers and unrivalled blend of exclusivity, build quality, practicality and performance. Four proper seats, a commodious boot and a lavish array of creature comforts provide the practicality whilst the much revered 3.5 litre, 24-valve, 286bhp, M88 engine delivers the excitement. This sporting thoroughbred will sprint to 60mph in six seconds and, in an awesome display of torque, pulls cleanly and increasingly rapidly from 25mph to 158mph in fifth gear. Overtaking ability is equally impressive with the dash from 30-70mph taking just 5.5 seconds. A ZF sports gearbox, limited slip differential, Motorsport suspension and Motorsport brakes with M1-spec four pot front calipers are all a testimony to a proud racing heritage. The M635 must surely rank as the ultimate workaday supercar blindingly quick and satisfying on the twisty bits, effortlessly refined as a motorway mile-eater, and uncomplainingly efficient when tottering to Tescos.
This splendid 1986 model is one of the best early examples I have seen. It has covered a mere 73,000 miles in the hands of just 5 owners each of whom has entrusted me with its care. In fact, I first saw the car 12 years ago when the original owner had me perform the first major inspection 2 service at 16,769 miles. Since then, I have performed a further 7 services and carried out everything that was required to ensure the car was maintained to the highest standard. At 60,000 miles I carried out an inspection 2 service, fitted a full clutch kit and replaced the air bellows, front discs, centre track rod, steering idler bush, upper tie bar bushes, rear sun-frame bushes and front Bilstein shock absorbers. At 65,000 miles I gave the car an Inspection I service and replaced the outer track rods, the pitman arms and wiper relay.
That was in July 2006. Since then I have given the car an oil and safety service, replaced the fuel tank, water pump and all the drive belts, centre exhaust section, brake sphere, rebuilt front calipers and a new Bosch battery.
The car comes fully prepared by the workshop and comes with Tracker fitted and Thatcham approved Lazerline 996 alarm system.
A personal favourite of mine!
