I can only get in and out of an Elise if the roof is off, I have found out is best done without an audience.

Don't know what you're looking at, but I can see a standard centre console for an aircon-equipped car.

The E28 steering wheel has been replaced by some later POS. TOTALLY WRONG WRONG WRONG. shoot

Ah, gotcha.

Nice ally pedals, too.

Have to say though, that wheel (minus the CF) is probably better than the standard one mine had:

Really? The Mtec 1 s/wheel (and this is appears more than a little beardy now I've written it down) is my favourite BMW s/wheel. Is it not so good to actually use?

I had it in my 528i and M5, and found it a little too big in diameter and too small in rim width.

Oo-er.

^^^^If the story is not that the car is a CAT D/C, and this is not a scam, then that is a bargain.

Re. that M635CSi, does anyone know what its "tale to tell" is? Must be quite a tale if the car is as good as he says, especially given the prices 4Star Classics seem to be getting for the ones they sell.

I don't like the idea that they're not upfront about it. I want to call just to hear the inevitable spiel before being told something pretty bad. If the owners were keeping it as an investment but now want rid at that price, then you can bet it's pretty dodgy.

Possibly been involved in a domestic type accident while in storage?

Looking at the pictures there is a rather worrying mixture of chromed/dechromed trim which, along with the poorly fitting bonnet / front panel and body-coloured door handles (eek), suggests to me that it's been in a salvage yard at some point.
After all, looking at recent sale prices if it was 100% original it would be worth a hell of a lot more than £12K with such low mileage.
Does anyone know the true tale?

I will be selling my m635 soon. Anyone here want it before it goes in the classifieds? cry
