Don't understand why threre is so much hostility in bm forum. Instead of discussing the cars you guys loved, you dissed people off. Chill out.

BTW, KLH 8, Hallmark is a greeting card company. You probably meant highline which was never available for 633. It was introduced towards the end of the production of 6er.

U haven't been around long enuf to realize that "Come lah, scared ah??" is not at all hostile.. Both parties are laughing at the phrase...

zagato, i really did mean Hallmark. :getyourfactsright: :lol: I know about the Highline too, but back in the late 70s, as the 633 neared the end of its production, BMW sent a batch to Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) and had some cosmetic work done (to shift unsold stock, i suppose)

Some, if not all the differences, are:
1) Alpina alloys
2) Alpina front spoiler
3) Alpina/Momo steering wheel with an 'H'
4) Full leather interior (not sure if the dash was leather). There's also a disc with an 'H' on the sides of the front headrests
5) Sterling silver front ashtray with an 'H'

These were extremely limited editions designed for the U K market only. I doubt if anybody really knows how many survive today. Was kind of hoping one found its way to Bolehland.

KLH8,

Sorry, iam not aware of the existence of such model. If it did exist it must be one of the most obsecure bm. Have any aricle on 633 Hallmark?

 

[klh8]

There was an article on one in the January 2001 issue of a magazine called 'Total BMW'.

You could also try Google.

You're right on it being one of the more obscure models. I only found out about it in the late '90s when I saw one at a car show in the U K.

We are not hostile. Think you better get use to the culture & lingo before posting comments about us.

[pussy]

Guys,

Seriously, what do you think? RM15k for a 633CSI. The catch is that the engine is sitting outside the car and needs a coat of paint. No rust and interior intact. Maybe another RM10k to put the car back on the road using the standard engine before considering other mods?

 

[Fuhrer]

25k to get it running and you got yourself a bargain for an e24!!

No rust? Surely you jest. There must be another catch somewhere as it certainly looks a bargain.
