The delay has been due to some work I,ve done since buying the car about a month ago :- new alpina wheels & tyres, both rear lenses, rear mudflaps, ( front ones have arrived from Germany & I am painting the brackets before fittment ), front end painted, it was,nt bad just a few stone chips, front number plate holder. Complete flat & polish to liven up the seventeen year old paintwork. It,s been 10 years since I last owned a six series & I must say it,s been worth the long wait! cheers.......DAT |

Impressive, don't see many black ones. What size of Alpinas do you have ? Did you manage to get original front mud flaps ? |

Looks like 8x17" from where I'm sitting. Then again, W&N still sell the original 7x16" front / 8x16" rear |

Wheel sizes are 8 1/2 / 17 front & 9 1/2 / 17 rear. Front mudflaps are original part from www.wallothnesch.com This company is based in Germany & they buy up all old stock of new parts from dealers around the world. I have eta to thank for suggesting site. |

It,s about light of the same amount of money as if I had bought a new Ford or Vauxhall, well worth it I think! |

After close inspection; that has to be one of the best 635's Ive ever seen, It is a very lovely car. The only fault I can find is to the latter section of your driveway! |

Looks cracking. Can't wait to see it in the metal.
I'd better get the polish out . . . |

Cheers for the comments lads. With regard to the driveway I can only say it matches quite a lot of the house, I am mid term into refurbishment but buying the six before completion means that time is being spent on the car & work on the house has had to suffer. It,s all about priorities, you all know what I mean! |

Just noticed the Shogun hiding away behind the Six.
You must do a bit of tarmac-ing on the side then  . Get dat droive fixed BeJeezzuz!
Lovely car though. When the new 6 came out I went to a suit and tie launch at my dealer and there was a gloss black Highline in with the new one. More people were looking at the original...... Can't say the new 6 does anything for me at all, as good as they undoubtedly are. At least they don't have Metric wheels.

Car looks brilliant in the photos, can you explain the term flattening of the paintwork , What does this do ? I have heard of the term when looking at Bimmer magazine but then it was with reference a new car and orange peel, surely if you flatten the highs of the paint you therefore remove the metallic element in the paint ?
