Looks neat but a few things dont add up.

It has at least got the right engine. ITB's, twin cam M88/S38 But,

It says it's an Auto but it has a gear lever/clutch pedal.

and surely an 'M' should have sports seats?

:? :?

Unbelievably, I've seen a few M635s with comfort seats. the M88 was bolted to auto boxes in the South African 745i. My spare engine has a flex plate attached.

That M635 has been on sale, by the same seller at the same price for well over a year.

I viewed it over a year ago and it was 5-6 grand's worth. Low mileage certainly, but the paintwork is poor in places and it needs some fettling.

I suspect it may be on SOR with a hopelessly optimistic owner.

No such thing as a cheap M635. It'll get your cash one way or another.

I might be interested if you don't want it, though.

I'd be interested to see what it's like and what he wants for it.
