Description
Avus Blue, 6 speed, EDC dampers (rebuilt professionally c. 2000miles ago), strong engine and drivetrain maintained by legendary expert David Olias. Restored front wings by approved BMW body shop, everything works as it should. Staggered M Parallel 18” refurbished original wheels. Originally owned by BMW, it’s believed the 1st private owner did most miles commuting Scotland to London. Current owner since 2013. MOT until May 2025 , some advisories about minor corrosion (front springs could do with rust removal but not cracked etc). A fine, drivable example with a very special documented early history. With a little bit of tlc to replace some trim clips and restore a slightly sagging headlining, this will be a £30k+ appreciating classic. Being sold only due to house move. This was the M5 3. 8 6 speed Press Car, magazine & book features abound (original magazines and book included in sale); legendary journalists such as Steve Sutcliffe pictured at the wheel. The original (suitably worn) n/ s front wheel & tyre is in the spare wheel well. The car is totally original with radio cassette, factory exhaust and M Parallel restored wheels (sitting on barely used Toyo R888r tyres). A unique classic only being sold due to house move. Viewing only by serious buyers at limited times due to owner availability. £preferred, €considered.
