SUMMARY
1988 BMW 535i (E34), manual gearbox, Dolphin Grey, 7,276 miles from new - where do we find them?
DESCRIPTION
- A superb find in one of the most popular colours, Dolphin Grey with a smart grey cloth interior
- Powered by BMW's legendary M30 3,430cc straight-six offering 208bhp and 225lb/ft. 5-speed manual gearbox
- Basically one owner from 1988 until 2021, used for around eight months and then stored having never had an MOT
- The car does run and drive but will require recommissioning fully before regular usage
- In amazing condition underneath, commensurate with the mileage. Original dealer number plates
- Supplied with a small amount of paperwork and shows its first PDI stamp but little else due to it being stored for virtually all of its life
- The E34 535 was a great driver's car and, in this condition and at this mileage, may well be destined for a Collection
