After 5 years off the road I decided my Beemer wanted using and taxed it this week, I have used it every day since and I love it This car was made in 1988 and still drives like a new car, no rattles, squeeks etc and for 218hp it's not slow either. I will never sell this car!!

 

awesome always loved these

 

Looks lush.

 

What model is that? ? I love the look of old Beemers.

 

Love these, one cool beemer!

 

lovely car.looks in very good order too..........

my dad had one quite a few years back.

 

635 without the rust option!

 

Is it still 218bhp though mate? Have you had it on the rollers?

Looks stunning, that paint job was done very well, always loved this shape 6 Series! :

 

Very nice -

Didn't you say everything has its price? lol

 

Not had it on the rollers but it goes way better than the quoted output would ever suggest it should... The guys at the paint shop knew I would not stand for anything less than a perfect paint finish and didn't disappoint!

 

Cool, I take it then engine is standard then?

I remember the resto thread on it I think, very nice!

This is one car you can't put MO's on Martin!

 

I did say that but when naming that price take into consideration that if ever I needed to sell all my cars and was told I could only keep one then this is the car I would keep

 

Cool

My Firenza is like that.

 

Stunning car! Had a soft spot for these after I saw one on massively wide Alpina rims years ago.

 

My Firenza is the next closest..

 

We should race to see who's can be finished 1st LOL

 

You may win!!! I have no plans to ever sell mine though so it will get finshed one day , how can such simple cars get under our skin?

 

Love the odl 6 Series. Love the rims on that too.

 

Cool plate

 

mint love the shark nose 635. my mate still has one sitting about rusting away

 

Well it was my 1st rwd car

Oh and they made 204 Droop Snoots - I love rare cars.

Gerry Marshall has driven mine too

Rusty examples are the norm and are expensive to put right, I paid too much for this car 8 yrs ago but finding a 635 with zero rust was hard back then. I bought my first 6 series back in 1986 and had to put front wings on it then due to rust, this car has never seen a panel!

I was in traffic a couple of days ago and ended up sitting opposite a new shape 6 series, the owner sounded his horn and gave me the thumbs up.

 

Are we talking about your yellow car? Is that a genuine snoot?

 

Lovely cars and thats a fine example

 

that looks cool mate very nice

 

hmmmmmm not sure on that martoon .. half way lol

 

If you can't see it then you need help!! Maybe you are too young!!!!!

 

very nice m8, theres 2 running aound my area that are in good nick

 

probably to young
i like it other than the front .. the way the bonnet over shoots a bit ?!

 

Cool as this car, cool as

 

you'll need to get a HD camera martin, it might show off just how good the paint job is, i was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of it a while back, it could have rolled off the production line yesterday

 

The front is the big deal! No wonder my 13yr old daughter has the same view as you, it must be an age thing! I'm not sure what your eyes are seeing but mine are seeing gorgeous !!

 

i'm pretty sure i nearly worked for them in 91

 

Well bring over your spunky camera and let's show how good it really is

 

he replaced the front wings on his - he bought them from a bmw specialist in germany near where i lived out there. it's his rear arches that are rusty now and he hasn't used it for so long that the mint cream leather electric interior is mouldy

 

Very nice Martin

And how many bitches you have working for ya??

Paul

 

dont worry when you get old it natural the eyes go a bit

each to there own ay ! least you like it ! main thing !

 

He's not going to want to hear this Nick but I would sell that car on and just pay all the money for a proper car as his will never be 100%.... Having said that proper 635's command big money now and everyone that owns one knows the score. I sold a Hi Line shitter for £1500 a few years back but no matter how much was spent on it, it would never be as good as mine.

What amazes me is how far ahead of the game BMW were back then, I'm comparing my car to modern stuff and it compares!

 

5 but I'm waiting for some imports!

 

What an absolutely stunning car!!!

Interior is lovely too, but i'd get it off the roads in this weather!! wouldn't want the salt eating away at it!
