Do you have any idea as to how many of these 20 are still around? Or how many of the UK supplied cars have been exported to the Antipodes?

We used to have a guy from Oz on here who was doing a spread sheet on all the M635s. Think his name is Gary.

I'll have a look to see if I can find it.

Thanks for posting the numbers, Paul. It makes for very interesting reading.

Thanks Ron,

Hopefully hear back from you soon.....otherwise project on hold

Looked through my spares and sorry to say that no 750 M/C.

When you replace the M/C with the 750 one you will have to make up new brake lines as it is different to the original.

I might have a spare 750 M/C will let you know.

Does your levelling system work?

Well spotted. Are they difficult to repair once they have seized up? The mechanical parts can be broken down with judicial use of penetrating oil and a gas flame. The main problem is the motor itself. When it was assembled at the manufacturers, the last thing they did was, using a very heavy pottin...

I wonder what happened to the headlight washers/wipers.

Please post the part numbers of the 2 covers that you have and I will see what I have.

Did you tape it on the old glass? Or did you pry the old glass out?

Brilliant write-up and pics.

Many thanks.Will be referenced frequently.

Have moved it to “Tech.Articles”.

Just wondered how the car has been "upgraded" to Highline spec? What has he done?

My yearly donation to you Brian for the wonderful job you keep doing.

Happy New Year.

Doubt if the front will fit as the originals are handed L & R. Don’t know about the rears.

There is a guy in Belgium selling new ones. I’ll see if I can find his number.

Kos,

Deeply sorry to hear about your father's passing and all the other misfortunes you have suffered.

Glad to hear that you are on the way back up to your usual happy self.

We'll get to meet again one day.

Best regds.

Ron.

Ah, I remember the Berlin. Now.....to find one. That'll be the hard part. I also came across the Blaupunkt Bremen which is a modern radio that looks period. I know that contradicts my first post but it looks right (sorta). Ok. Someone must have a Berlin out there! I have a Berlin IQR 85 in it’s ori...

Have you tried Google? There seems to be a few on there.

Are you sure it is #19? According to my records #19 is Saturn Blue (#176) with Pacific Blue leather (#0204). Eng. #42733602. It should also have headlight washers/wipers which don't appear to be fitted! Has it got an Anti-Theft lock to the rear of the driver's door? Nice car to have and good luck wi...

I'm keen to find out the specs on which Becker Mexico radio and Hirschmann aerial it would have had fitted if anyone is able shed some light on that please. The radios were fitted at the dealers for the UK cars so it depended on what the original buyer requested. Most were fitted with either Blaupu...

If you paid through Paypal, open a dispute. It works well to get your money back.

Hi Ronnie,

Have never seen a R/H one.

Best regds.

This is where it fits.
Investigating the 3D printing of the L/H/S water deflector. There is no part number and it doesn't appear in the parts breakdown.


Also printing a "handed" version for the R/H/S.

Please register interest.

I'm in the process of making a batch of M88 RHD throttle cables.

Will post on here when they are ready. Haven't worked out a price yet!

R/H drive cars suffer badly from this problem as the M/C is directly above the exhaust manifold.

I changed my Highline M/C to an E32 item and had to remake the pipes as the fitting was different.

I eventually had the same sticking problem with the E32 M/C. The cure was to ceramic coat the manifold.
