Hello all, I have a question regarding the Motorsport variant of the E24 635 CSi & M635 CSi. Both were called "Motorsport Edition" and had some extra bits and pieces on them. Were these mods done in the UK, or were they made like this completely in Germany at the factory? Perhaps there were even more UK E24 variants that I do not know of yet.

The 635 Motorsport Edition was a UK-only marketing exercise like the over-rated E30 Cabriolet & consisted of a collection of options under one option code (129). It seems there were only 188 produced.
The options included:

Twelve. Apparently. I've got an article about it somewhere.... one David R. Cornell featured in it. You could almost taste the smugness dripping off the page Edited by Horsetan |

Hi Andy, many thanks for this detailed info! Just one question though, the top-half of the options you mentioned, were available to order on any other 635CSI, but I assume they all were, together with the bottom-half, fitted to the Motorsport variant as standard? I assume they were all Manuals (635CSi)? Best wishes, Ronald.

You mean David Connell. I'll never get over how arrogant the guy was about some rear ended and repaired 6 Series and the fantasy power figures (330 bhp??) Didn't he used to sweep the floor at Maranello Concessionaires or something? |

Cornell.

No idea, but he was very picky about letting people touch his car. Here is his car: ...and here it is again: Edited by Horsetan |
