Love these. My dad had one around 1988. It left a lasting impression on me

Edited to say not the Hartge edition. Just a normal M535i.

great,i looked for one but ended up with the E34 535 with alpina engine instead,rims looked great but if you can have a look for some 18" alpinas they suit that bodywork in an awesome way

Does it have original size wheels on it ?

A mate of mine had one years ago and had real trouble getting tyres for it as the wheels were metric sized..

Might be different now but something to check in advance of needing new tyres.. unless you're gonna change them for something 'english' sized..

The wheels in the picture are not the metric ones ,you can still get the metric ones but quite expensive
