Looks good!

[Soperman]

Bid up to £45k, but it looks as though that wasn't enough to buy the car.

Judging by the shortage of M635s selling for high prices recently, I wonder if the vendor will come to regret this?

It's back on...

Re-reading the description and looking at the pics, the MOT states that it is 'heavily undersealed'. Maybe the sills could be a little less 'protection' as it looks as if the main rust locations are pretty well covered - almost excessively, IMO! ...................................and the mileages shown on the test certificate

[Soperman]

Yeah, too raised an eyebrow at the "heavily undersealed" body with "no visible corrosion". But then again, nothing a good tap with a screwdriver won't discover.

I think any prospective buyer must factor in new/replacement tyres - three of those 240/45/415 TRXs are the Michelin's previous tread and construction, so could well be 20 years old.

And, seeing as I'm feeling very pedantic today, those are NOT 2 piece BBS wheels...

[Soperman]

Bid up to £41.5k this time…

Did it actually sell this time? Refer to my earlier comment................................

I was wondering why the "Alpina" logo has been left on the front spoiler and why the race harness was not removed. Enough, surely, to confirm that the car has been ragged around the roads if not the track!
