FS UK RHD M635CSi #511

We are barely into 2022, and yet another M635 comes up for sale in the UK. This one is Cirrus Blue with Lotus White. It's part of the Classic Heroes Collection, but Barney is letting it go. It's obviously in stunning condition, with an ultra low mileage of just £22k. The price? Ready for this? Sitti...

Re: UK M635CSi #144 for auction with CCA in December est, £28-32k

Just the installation of a full leather interior as far as I can tell. I think it may have been done even before the time of Paul Lewis’ (Bispal’s) ownership.
BTW nice to hear from you Ron. Hope you’re well, and my compliments on your Alfasud ownership!

Coming up soon at auction with "The Market". Number 152, Arctic Blue with Pacific Cloth. 155k. B512OPH. Even though it appears to have spent much of its life in my neck of the woods, I've never heard of this car before. History suggests it was laid up between 1998 and 2021. £21k was spent ...

FS UK RHD M635 #027

Up with Classic Heroes who, as well as maintaining the car, have sold it previously. They were asking £26k for it in 2014 (which is when the advert photos were taken I'd imagine). It's clearly a well maintained example, with timing chain replacement. Now they're looking for £69k. https://www.classic...

Re: Turnover of RHD M635CSi cars in 2021

And few exported to Oz, NZ & other parts of the Far East. So at best, only some 50% extant.
I know of 27 RHD cars that are in Aus, NZ, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Canada. But I've an idea that there are about another dozen or so in Australia....

Spotted on eBay, I'm fairly sure this is 109. Reg B826KRD Off the road for 20 years apparently. 125k miles, scruffy, faded, some usual rot, but lots of originality and at first glance well worthy a restoration. First thing I'd replace is the electrical tape masquerading as plenum chamber hose! https...

I was looking on and off for years, without success. In the end I eventually resigned myself to a repair , following the advice on Norm Grilles. Much easier than I thought, and it works perfectly now.
