The BMW E24 is a four-seater luxury coupé from BMW and the first model in the 6 Series. Production began in October 1975 as the successor to the E9 series. At the time of its launch, the 630 CS with a 3.0-litre carburettor engine and the 633 CSi with a 3.2-litre fuel injection engine were available. The standard equipment was quite extensive by the standards of the time, including comfort features such as central locking, electric windows, electrically adjustable exterior mirrors, height-adjustable driver's seat and longitudinally adjustable steering wheel, as well as safety features such as power steering with safety steering column and laminated glass windscreen. In order to fill the sporty niche again after the two more comfort-oriented base models, the 635 CSi with a 3.5-litre fuel injection engine with 218 hp was added to the model range in 1978. This model differed from the other two models in its appearance, with front and rear spoilers and side trim strips. The 635 CSi on offer, with 5-speed gearbox and leather interior was first registered in Italy in 1981. The history of this elegant coupé is unknown, but it was last registered in Bari. At the end of 2023, the BMW – with 123’765 kilometers on the clock and fresh from servicing – was purchased by a Swiss collector from a dealer in Agliana, near Florence, and then imported. Since then, the noble Bavarian has spent most of its time parked in a dry hall and has been driven very little. For reasons of space, the car is now being sold with a heavy heart. With probably only 123’920 km on the clock, the 6 Series is in good to very good condition. The paintwork is beautiful, the black leather seats and steering wheel were reupholstered a few years ago and the carpets have been replaced. The inline six-cylinder engine runs smoothly, as is typical for the brand, and the gearbox shifts well. This beautiful BMW will be handed over to a new owner with Italian papers and Swiss customs duty paid.
