1980 BMW 6 Series 635 CSi review from Australia and New Zealand
"Fast, fat and furious"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Split power steering hose.
Clutch bearing.
General comments?
The most beautiful car I've driven. Much more poke than the current 850 up to 100kmh and still got the looks to go with it.
Superb rear end action, slides round the corners magnificently. Only drawback is it goes like a V8, but also drinks like a V8.
