i love the exhaust system on these, i have a 1992 325is and have the same dual exhaust all the way from factory!! had it off to replace flex disc and very impressed with german engineering, it is high performance, nice car guys
Lovely classic the E24 6 series. I'd definetely would not have put that tension arm in a car like that, but nevertheless good work. I miss the old Wheeler Dealer!
Tightening the thrust arm bushings with the suspension unloaded is bad. BMW says each front seat have 150 lbs, 50 in the rear and 50 in the trunk on level ground before tightening them up. The will be under stress when tightened while on a lift and then weighted.
Scrap values back then were on the floor. It actually used to cost money to weigh cars in. It didn't last long however. Top Gear did the £100 car challenge to prove that point
Sadly soon all combustion cars and trucks including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Car washs will be forbidden too because they are climate killers, now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.!!! (BABVVEN & TEBBVEN & BEFVO laws)!!!!!
£2000 pounds for a 635 csi? Ah the times..
double and give it to the next is quite accurate today.
£350 for a rusty one
Ah i miss my E24 635i... sadly the electronics went haywire and I ended up having to let it go.

Those two exhaust sections are now £500 each and a parts car are around £5000 if you can find one. 🤦♂️😭
Edd, bro, you DO NOT have a ramp, you have a lift....omfg that s*^t drives me insane....
So how much did they get for reselling the donor car? Surely they would've gotten at least £200 or even £150 in scrap even back then?

we have a 1984 e24 we love it but my son can't fit his child seat in the back seats
Mike always seems like a jerk on the show Mike busy doing nothing while ed is killing it
👍👍👍
Is eddy back with mike ?
Yes. They've also reversed time by 20 years....
Sad they took a part and pretty much sacrificed that other Beemer.
For the sake of profit.
It had structural rust, thus failed it's MoT
From a time when bmw built fabulous cars , not anymore 😭
