no I never, just thought it sold and left it at that then it appears a few weeks later at another dealer.. 500 miles is a long way just to look at a car, there's no way I'm committing to buying a car blind. seems to be the norm these days but I think it's crazy!

well, I finally did it and just bought this beauty! it's the one I wanted from the start but couldn't afford it at 1st, 68k with full history, looks very original and is super straight and the colour scheme is just what I wanted!

Nice score for sure

Not sure about those ///M Technik side skirts with the 88/89 bodywork and world bumpers, but man, that is one sharp looking 6er

yes, I said I'd never do that but gone with my instincts.. another one I would trust is Ron's, that looks OK from the pics too

had my 635 2 days now, I won't get to drive it until the 1st as that's when the tax starts so have been doing a few jobs ready instead! I gave the car a full machine polish as it had lots of swirl marks and flat paint etc.. the car is remarkably original and never been welded or painted from what I can see! being 27 years old it does have stone chips and small marks here and there but it would be almost sacrilege to paint the car as it's so original.. I took out the Blaupunkt Berlin cassette deck/amp and replaced it with a modern cd tuner, for now that will do until I fit a more serious sound system

I just want to enjoy the car right now.
