Just 524 right-hand-drive examples were built between 1984 and 1989. Unique amongst sports coupes, the M635 offers an unrivalled blend of exclusivity, build quality, practicality and performance. Four ‘proper’ seats, a commodious boot and a lavish array of creature comforts all added to the practicality whilst the much revered 3.5 litre 24-valve 286bhp engine delivered the excitement.
This sporting thoroughbred could sprint to sixty in six seconds and, in an awesome display of torque, pull smoothly and increasingly rapidly from 25mph to 158mph in fifth gear.
Overtaking ability was equally impressive with 30-70mph taking a mere 5.5 seconds. A Getrag sport gearbox (no auto option), limited slip diff, Bilstein gas-filled dampers, Motorsport springs, larger roll bars, bigger front ventilated discs with M1-spec 4-pot calipers, larger 415mm TRX wheels, wheel arch extensions with front and rear spoilers are all testimony to a proud racing heritage.
