1981 BMW 635 csi Euro

1981 Grey market BMW 635 csi; I have the paperwork from when the car was imported into the united states that shows that it is compliant with US regulations. This car is a bit sportier and faster than the american model. The speedometer in the car reads 109,000 but it is not the original speedo. So I would assume that the 109,000 is from when the car was importded. The rest of the dash is written in german. Makes the car kindof a cool conversation piece. This car has air conditioning, which is rare for german models so it was most likely added after the fact. The a/c dosent work ( really never needed it). Probably has a leak somewhere, the fans in the engine compartment come on and the compressor runs I have just never charged it so I do not know what the problem is. The car comes with manual recaro seats (pass bolster has tear), alpina steering wheel and shifter. I have done a lot of work to this car and has been garaged since 2000 when had it repainted. Currently I have the TRX wheels and tires on it but included with the auction is a set of 16” BMW rims
