Successor to the race-proven (E9) 3.0 CS/CSi high-performance Sports Coupes, the 6-Series was introduced in August 1976. More forgiving than its predecessors, it utilised a modified version of the (E12) 5-Series Saloon platform equipped with all-round independent suspension and powerful disc brakes. A natural rival to the 928 and XJS, the four-seater 6-Series proved more capacious than the Porsche and sportier than the Jaguar. Immediately recognisable thanks to its distinctive 'shark nose' frontal styling and thin pillared glasshouse cabin, it boasts real road presence, an impression supported by the various versions of BMW's mighty M30 engine.
Imported into the UK from Italy in 2016 and recorded as first registered in the UK on 1st January 2018, this left-hand drive example has been in current ownership since being imported. A rare sight on the roads, whichever side the steering wheel is fitted, this example wears the familiar 1980s BMW Opal Green Metallic with a complementing Cream leather interior. In UK ownership, the 635 CSi has been used in UK rallies and overseas events that have included European jaunts to Ireland, Poland and Croatia. Mechanical work has seen a new radiator, brake discs and pads and refreshed alloys and suspension. A collection MOT paperwork, dating from import up to 2023, is accompanied by the V5C.
