Model History

The E34 535i Sport was introduced to the UK market in 1989. It utilized the iconic M30 engine that has powered BMWs for 28 years starting in 1968, including championship winning touring cars in the form of the E9 CSLs and the E24 coupes.

 

The E34 535i Sport had 211bhp at 5700 rpm and 225 lbft at 4000 rpm. This propelled the car from 0-60 mph in 7.5 seconds via the 5 speed manual Getrag transition.

All official UK Sport models came factory fitted with aerodynamic M Technic body styling, consisting of front and rear bumpers, side skirts and M Technic rear boot spoiler. In addition to this they also came factory fitted with the following standard equipment - cloth or leather BMW sports seats - leather trim (a £1079 optional extra), M Technic I steering wheel, limited-slip differential, 30 mm lower M Technic sports suspension manufactured by Boge/Bilstien, close ratio 5-speed manual gearbox or the switchable (EH) 4-speed ZF automatic transmission (a £1860 optional extra), shadowline tail pipe trim, chrome exterior trim or shadowline trim (a £389 cost option), 15" BBS alloy wheels - the very earliest Sport models came with larger 415 mm BBS forged TRX alloys with metric tyres.

Exterior

This stunning BMW is finished in unmarked Glacier Blue Metallic. The exterior of this pampered 535i Sport looks in close to new condition and truly defies its 23 year age being free from any dents, scratches or chips. The waist moldings and bumper plastic are all scuff free and remain in excellent condition. The chrome trim is in excellent condition as are the lights both front and rear; clear, clean and crack free.

 

This prized 1 owner car still bares both original Barons number plates to compliment the original supplying tax disc holder and rear window sticker.

Interior

The BMWs cabin is a lovely place to be, with the unmarked blue leather electric seats in close to new condition. The M Tech steering wheel and gear knob show no signs of hard use and the leather is in wonderful condition.

 

The carpets are showing no wear throughout and are completely unmarked. The boot area remains free from any stains and the BMW tool kit is in immaculate unmolested condition. This car even has the original BMW locking wheel nut key system as fitted in 1990. The spotless spare alloy wheel is shod in matching Michelin TRX rubber. The car has never been smoked in, both front and rear ashtrays remain unused. The factory fitted Blaupunkt Montreaux radio tape player is also still present.

Engine & Transmission

This example has only covered a mere 60,670 miles and has an impeccable full service history to back up the mileage, as you would expect it is in perfect mechanical order. Recent work carried out includes an oil and filter change, a replacement battery and a full inspection.

 

The car sailed through an MOT on 13th May 2013 with no advisories. The engine produces wonderfully smooth performance at speed and idles perfectly up to temperature.

The close ratio 5 speed manual gearbox feels light and accurate shifting through the gears.

Wheels, Tyres & Brakes

The car sits on the desirable 415 mm BBS forged TRX alloys, they are shod in matching 'as new' period Michelin TRX tyres all round. The front and rear brakes are in perfect working condition and make little effort to bring the fast super saloon to a standstill.

History File

This BMW 535i Sport was supplied by Barons of Hindhead on 21 may 1990. The car has had just one private owner throughout its 23 year life.

 

The car was initially serviced with BMW before being cared for by a BMW specialist for the rest of its pampered life. The car was off the road from 2009 when it had covered 60,202 miles and was recently re-commissioned and inspected by MJF Engineering, a well recognised BMW specialist in May 2013.

 

In addition to the original service book, the car also comes with the original document holder, owner's manuals, the original bill of sale from Barons totalling £36,918, the original brochure with the salesman's business card stapled to the front and the original options list with the selected options highlighted. There are 2 keys with 2 alarm remotes.
