Introduction
Darren Rungasamy
The BMW 635 CSi is a perfect blend of performance, comfort, and sophistication.
Created to effortlessly cruise the Autobahns, the BMW 6-Series was perched at the top of the BMW pecking order, carrying over the lineage of the stylish E9 Coupé. Recognisable by its Paul Bracq-penned ’ Shark's nose’ styling, the 6 Series's power, comfort, ergonomics, and interior space placed the car as one of the 1970s’ best grand tourers. The range was overhauled in 1982 to include new suspension, interior design, revised engines and subtle exterior upgrades, to become a symbol of the new upwardly mobile scene.
The 635 CSi produced 215bhp from its M30 3.4-litre six-cylinder engine, and maintained BMW's reputation for driving dynamics and handling balance: its smart, muscular lines also gave the car an impressive road presence. Tremendously advanced for its time, the innovative digital trip computer forms part of the wrap-around centre console: still a design feature in modern BMWs.
We are delighted to present you with this 1987 automatic BMW 635 CSi, finished in 'Zinnober Red' with black leather seats and a factory sunroof, coming from ~22 years with our vendor. It has had just 4 owners and has 22 service stamps since new. It has only covered around 800 miles since a body restoration in 2017. It is sold with two keys, its owner's & service booklet, and a fresh MOT valid until September 2026. The car will be road tax and MOT exempt in two years' time.
This listing was written from information supplied by Darren after meeting Vernon the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

I'M INTERESTEDAsk Questions
I would welcome your answers to the questions regarding the gearbox, and also why the ‘inspection’ service required light is on.
Hi Vernon, had a couple of these in the past, gearbox faults are common, locking into 3rd gear to get you home, i see it does not change gear on the test drive, has the box been serviced, does it have the fault i didn’t see a fault light on the dash but also didn’t see the check light comeon pre startup so the bulb could be out? Does it shift between all four gears, and again into drive nad reverse without a hard clunk? thank you
Just a couple of quick questions Vernon (lovely car by the way). In the video it didn’t quite start first time – is that normal and is it from cold or warm? In the video driving it, you had the automatic gearbox locked into first gear rather than “D” any reason for this? Finally the description mentions paint “runs” which would imply poor painting at the time of refurb or subsequently could you elaborate? Many thanks
