UK M635CSi #348 for auction 09/11/2019 @ NEC

Estimate looks to be on the low side to me. Ex BMW GB who owned it for 29 years!

I might be wrong Pod, but I read the advert as the car having two owners after BMW GB.

Either way, I agree the estimate does appear a little low, especially when one considers the numbers being thrown around a few years back, when 348 was identified as being a "star" of the BBC's cringeworthy riposte to Dallas and Dynasty - Howard's Way

I'll have to find some old pre digital photos to confirm but I "think" this car was owned by the mother of the owners of a very exclusive car sales and storage facility just south of Cambridge.
I used their storage facility for my then car for a few years and there were two E24's in this colour in the store during that time . One rough 635 and a beautifully maintained M6 belonging to the mother which she had owned from "new" .

Yes, that’s correct Superman!

I note that according to the auction results, you can “ buy for £24,150” - so it would appear that it failed to sell. IMO a bit of a bargain, considering #436 is up for £40k!

Or was there any reason for this? Did anybody on this board view the car?
