OK...my 635 was sold but now isn't, won't go into details as to why.
Had the car advertised all over the place but no takers. Don't want to scrap a decent little car but I'm running out of options here. Can't break it here as no facilities. Does anyone want a 635 CSi to play with, restore or even use for banger racing...(not that the condition is that lousy)? This car isn't being sold as such, its officially free to good home and whoever wants it can drive it home or trailer it or whatever. PM me if you have any suggestions or you want any further info on the car. Ta muchly. |

Right....
This car is going to the scrapyard in 1 week if no-one with a trailer or tow rope comes to fetch the damn thing. There is nothing actually wrong with the car, I have seen 4 or 5 yr old cars in far worse condition than this one. I am very unhappy with being messed about with initially so unless someone comes forward and gets the car, then sorry but its going to be broken up. The car needs 300 spent to get thru MOT which I don't have. The car is able to be driven but I would prefer it wasn't due to the fact its registered as SORN in my name and I don't particulary want any more financial difficulty than I already have. So, if the car doesn't go in a weeks time, it will be scrapped..end of story. |

There is a car delivery company based over here should anyone want to have the car. They specialise in classic car moves, so well experienced and highly recommended. Being an Island firm they also get preferential rates on ferries too, so would probably be able to help in some way to get the car to anyone who wants it. I can supply contact details if anyone wishes.
Like I said, this car WILL drive, I just prefer it not to be driven unless on trade plates as it is registered SORN and has been since June 2002, but since April 2004 in my name and I don't want to end up with a fine. Plus the fact that the car hasn't done more than 20 miles since going into storage and although the engine is sound, there is always a chance of a hose failing or something similar, so towing or trailering is really the best option. |

..always wanted a 635csi...
..just don't have the room (e30 in way at mo..) If I had, and transport, it'd be sat outside my place gathering dust and bird seeds.. instead of my 320i, which I'll probably be giving away at some point. |

you really should advertise it, anyone want to chip in a pound to cover the costs of an ad in Practical Classics magazine, should cost no more than 20 including a photo? According to them a basket case 635 CSI is worth a grand you can pay us back when its sold if it makes you feel better nothing ventured.... yadaa yadaa yadaa Edited by stephenperry |

You might get away with using an e24 635 auto on a track Stephen, but it could slow you down a bit....you would spend all day playing with all the gizmo's and gadgets...
