keep the BBS metrics, they have no real value but nice to keep especially if the tyres are in decent contrition

[bss325i]

Cheers lads, i paid less than four bags and it also comes with a fully stamped up service book, right up to a BMW oil service at 74205, the last inspection 11 being 66621.

Has had a new master cylinder,pressure regulator a fresh brake fluid this year,

I have been in bed all day today, a sausage roll from a garage going up to get the car done me right in,so no pics

I have sold my Hartge rep to our oldest son, he can pay me when he has finished uni, unlucky for him cannot afford to insure it,so its still mine until he can, all this just to sweeten the old woman

What a result! Get to keep the E28 and the Hartge rep in the family!

Certainly looks a nice 635, look forward to some pics!

[Rodderz]

The executive club looks great... the football club however.. meh!

This. One day people like me will be mad enough to fork out on old technology tyres just to have it original!

[Alpina99]

Very nice Chris,
I'll try to come & see it soon,
(Will you still speak to us mere mortals ??)

[cecotto479]

The geezer also gave me the original BBS wheels, i think they are metrics, are they just scrap?

Yes and no.

Your car will never drive better than with a new set of TRXs, but they must be new in terms of age of manufacture, not condition. Lots of really good looking tyres are dreadful and a couple of years ago some new old stock tyres were found. They were terrible too. TRXs harden very quickly - usually after about 3 years or so and become just dreadful. That wasn't a big deal back in the day when the mileage meant they'd be being replaced at about that time anyway.

New ones are superb - remember TRXs were standard fit on Ferrari, Jaguar and the 158 mph M635CSi - but they're about £350 or so each. So if you don't know that the tyres were manufactured in the last 3 years or so, I'd stay clear.

Good looking car. You can't beat a Highline IMV. Is that one of the earlier so called "Halflines" without the leather trimmed dash?

[Andyboy]

Highline is a misnomer - that's the car with the chrome trim. Shadowline is the black trim version. In Europe, the 'Highline' was available with 15 inch BBS Style 5's from the E34 and E32. Early E reg cars had the plastic dash.

[Kos]

The TRX GT's are a good tyre. If I'm right they are very similar in compound to the Michelin Pilot SX GT's MXX2/MMX3 which is one of the best tyres, period

[Blitz]

Metric wheels are great looking wheels, especially the style 5's with a 16.3 inch (415) rim and they wear big 240 section tyres.

I dont know how old are these

[Splondike]

That's a lovely looking car Chris you jammy git

[spook]

I thought i had bettter get my hands on one before they got out of my price range, I did get some info from the main dealer before i went to look at the car [cheers Pete] and it did originally come with Red leather.

The dash is plastic, the car also comes with cruise control, Mtech wheel and black headliner, ive not really had the chance to look at the car since i drove it home.

Thanks for the info chaps.

I've got the royal blue version of that on my desk at work. For that price I think it should go back in the box.

[Simon13]

thats way to posh for your road!! They'll love that on site, premier trade rolling up in a 6

[Ollie_bwoii]

I really love a nice E24. Lucky owning a chariot like that.

[cecotto479]

Bugger! I've gone and bought another Lachs one.

Boyd you sicko

[stew316i]

damm watching lethal weapon 2 they just wrecked a nice one

[Blitz]

They used a M6 for the chase and the crash scene they used an older non M E24.

Spook. A M635CSI front spoiler is a must on that car.

[cecotto479]

No M635 front spoiler for the '88 on cars, I'm afraid.



They just had the standard Highline spoiler and the earlier proper M635 spoiler won't fit.

[Rav335uk]

Boyd, get your ar5ee ingear

Did you buy the other one for spares???
I was watching that

[cecotto479]

Just waiting on one set arriving on a car tomorrow.

I bought this not long after I sent you the text the other day.

I think it's for breaking. I've seen that inner wing rot before and once you get in about it with the old knotted wire brush, it's not pretty. There's a flitch panel in there that will be non existent. The sellers £500 and a weeks work is hopelessly optimistic.

It's a non runner. Its been off the road for some time. It's got rusty wings, inner wings and a crumbly jacking point. I think its days are numbered.

Lots of good parts if anyone has recently bought a Highline and needs anything.

Luckily Spooks is an early 'pure' metal bumper turd

[cecotto479]

So it is. I should have looked at the picture. So much talk of Highlines. In that case, the M-tech spoier will fit perfectly. It is a bugger to fit thpugh involving removing the rubber strips.

[jaymos]

Where is the 8 track?

[Low_E30]

Does this Highline Motorsport in Macau blue with lotus white leather represent good value for money??

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1989-BMW-635- ... 256c5262eb

[cecotto479]

I'd say it's worth a look.

The Motorsports aren't significant more valuable, but they do command a bit of a premium.

Macau and Lotus is a lovely combination, but at the end of the day, it's an E24. Check for rust everywhere.

[spook]

Thats been for sale for ages^

I could do with some rear headrests Peter , i will have to bring her up for a good ole poke about mate

Im not gonna being doing any lowering or any other council activity on this turd at all.

[spook]

Jaymos someone has installed a multi cd changer in the boot, so i can have the whole collection
