I was still working from an M5 rather than M535i.
Yea, offering £3500 for that would take some serious cheek.

I wonder if the guy thought it was an M5 and so he could get a bargain with a cheeky offer thinking they wouldn't know any better.Yea, offering £3500 for that would take some serious cheek.

I'm glad you guys are all positive, helps me feel good about the project. It will be a slow burner but I'll keep you all updated.
Here's a question: it appears the mileage is unknown, and without my Uncle around to confirm, I'll probably never know what it is. Will this have any effect on day to day goings on such as MOT? What do I state for that and insurance? Since I'm not selling, it shouldn't be an issue on that side of things.
I had one but not an M\\ model.
I would check the jacking points they were terrible for rust.
LHD is better as the conversion of the brakes to RHD was terrible on the E28.
The RHD still had the master cylinder on the left and a load of rods and seized pivots to take away any brake feel.
The brakes used the power steering system for pressure and there was an accumulator that always lost it's inetrnal diaphragm springinness.
Instrument cluster had 2xAA Ni-cad batteries soldered onto the PCB which will have lost their functionality and possible leaked.
Also check the banjo bolts on the camshaft oil spray bars as they work loose starving the camshafts of oil at higher speeds.
I can't remember much else. It was 20+ years ago.
Hmmmm
Any service history lying about for it? Weird there's no MOT history on the .gov site for it.
