D500HKR is available on eBay right now.

Rear wheel arch extensions are missing but I'm loving the twin go-faster aerials.

Relatively speaking that has to be a bargain doesn't it?

Mmmh, I don't know really.
Seeing as there is rust on the roof, this could well need a ton of remedial bodywork after a closer inspection. The high mileage suggests a second (if indeed there was ever a first) timing chain isn't too far away. It's entirely possible this car could need many,many thousands spent on it, and what would its subsequent "restored" value be with 182k miles?

Best of luck to the new owner. It's one of only five RHD cosmos/pearl M635s ever built, so it would be nice to hear it's back on the road, and being enjoyed.

I was watching the auction too. Nice colour.

This was a typical "car dealer" write-up. You had to read as much into what he didn't say as what he said! Why no mileage shown? (although easily found out by going to the DVLA website). Essentially a load of nonsense IMO!

I hope the successful bidder pays the £900 to get it MOT'd and fixed by the dealer, then takes it for a genuine test and bills him for the full cost of getting it a genuine MOT. I reckon the dealer's wide open to a civil action for that bearing in mind his auction undertaking.

Still, there's plenty of time for the buyer to change his mind - so I wouldn't be surprised to see it relisted within a week or so?

Just my 2c :wink:

So its back on ebay :wink: Shame the dealer cannot even be honest about the number of rhd M635CSi cars still extant in the UK. He says less than 100, but it's at least 244 according to DVLA.

Sold for £20,101 this time.

No doubt it will be re-listed again soon, so that the "private listed" bidders can all bid once more................
