Ever so cool and in-vogue E28 generation M535i automatic with much
useful recent expenditure - Investment Alert!
Supplied new by Barons of Farnborough in April 1987 this supremely
cool E28 generation of BMW 5-Series comes to us in desirable M535i guise, and is
finished in ZinnoBerrot Red with black trim and retro-fit 16” BMW X-Lace alloy
wheels and was the top of the tree of the regular E28 5-series tree and featured
M-Technic suspension along with model specific wheels and
bodykit.
Under the bonnet we find the 3.4-litre
M30 straight-six cylinder engine with Motronic which when new, developed 215bhp
and 310NM of torque driving the rear wheels here, via four-speed automatic
transmission with Sport, Economy and manual modes.
Inside we find a black leather interior in remarkably good shape,
electric windows, electric mirrors, sunroof, front fog lights, trip computer,
check control panel and Pioneer radio/cassette player.
The car shows 150,576 miles (an average of just 4,300 miles/year)
and presents well, starting promptly and running as it should, as we gather it
did on its run up from London with our retro BMW enthusiast
vendor.
The history file includes the V5C which
shows six former keepers, the owner’s pack and service book recording some 17
service stamps inc. PDI plus four further stamps for body inspections. The last stamped service was in June
2022 at 149,365 miles by Staines Service Centre.
In addition to the above, the history file also includes an old V5C
and a selection of bills for works undertaken including the most recent service
and other works including engine tune-up, replacement rear wheel bearings,
replacement centre exhaust section and new battery in April 2022, two new
Yokohama tyres in December 2022 and a £2,572 spend in July 2022 on replacement
front suspension parts, welding, brake shoes, rear brake calliper and brake
pipes.
The car’s MOT is valid until January
2024 recording four minor advisories and looks like one hell of a cool, retro
ride. Considered the next best
thing to the E28 M5, this junior M5 looks set to follow the upwards trajectory
in climbing values like various other classic BMW M-cars. On Offer at a fraction
of the price for the M5 version, this looks like storming value for such a rare
and capable car and one we like a lot.
