The BMW 6-Series E24 is a classic gem, particularly when it comes to the more spirited variants. Take this 1984 BMW 635CSi, for instance, though it’s currently a “barn find” in need of some serious TLC. Restoring this shark-nose beauty to its former glory will be a labor of love, but the auction’s modest estimate could make it an appealing project car for those with a passion for automotive revival.
The backstory of this classic BMW is not as dramatic as its looks may suggest. Two decades ago, the current owner purchased it from a close friend who was also its original owner, harboring dreams of restoring it to its former glory. Regrettably, those intentions never saw the light of day, and the car spent the majority of the past twenty years nestled in a barn.
The auction listing on Cars Online Bonhams reveals that the owner did drive it back in the day, but it’s been a while since anyone attempted to fire up the engine. Prospective buyers should be prepared to transport it on a trailer.

The BMW originally sported an Arctic Blue coat, although the layers of grime now cloak its true condition. Judging from the photos, this is the perfect car for another “first wash in 20 years” YouTube detailing video. While the exterior seems to be free of major dents, a look on the underside reveals worrying bits of rust, adding to the long need-to-do list of the new buyer.
Moving inside, the situation is a lot better although years of neglect mean that you’ll need to disassemble the cabin for a deep clean. The dark blue leather upholstery on the front seats is not in good shape, but at least there are no missing components from the interior.

This specific model is a 1984 BMW 635CSi, positioned right below the M635CSi and the M6 (US-Spec) within the lineup. Back in 1984, its 3.4-liter 6-cylinder engine churned out a respectable 215 hp (160 kW / 218 PS). However, in this instance, it’s paired with a leisurely 4-speed automatic gearbox, rather than the more coveted manual transmission. The odometer reading of 175,000 miles (281,635 km) attests to the car’s prior enjoyment before its prolonged hiatus.
The latest BMW barn-find is located in Dumfries, Scotland, and is expected to fetch between £4,000-6,000 ($4,855-7,283), which is far below the market price of a well-preserved example. What’s more, there’s no reserve, which implies that a fortunate buyer could potentially acquire it for even less.
