Don’t listen to the haters Jonno, it’s a cheap car and you’ll have plenty of fun in it, just make sure you keep a rainy day fund for when something breaks! Great video guys, can’t get enough of V8 sound! Liam looked a bit worried on the test drive!😂😂😂
Valve stem oil seals are the biggest issue on this engine followed by the alternator bracket. Thermostat doesn't open until 105 degrees - the result is that the plastic parts of the engine suffer. I had a an e60 with this engine- it was a great car.
Brilliant cars, I had the 630i then moved to the 650i. Then the newer 640. Love these big coupes absolutely lovely drive and a bargain. Few big items can ruin these but once done you’ll get much enjoyment. I’m now in a f82 m4. The I drive on these can fail too
@ I didn’t but I will be sure to find it and watch in bed later! Thanks. Mine is a non comp and completely standard. But the upgrade urge is there already!
Congratulations Jono on the new car well deserved after what you’ve been through with 3 series. Keep up the hard work lads and as usual a great fun to watch ❤
I own the 650i, same engine just slightly bigger with a bit more power and I love it. Stock exhausts is muffled as heck, but even stock they are quick; low 5's to 60 and it pulls non stop, even at... some... speed. And even though it's an auto, it really knows how to get a shift on when you sting it. What the seller says is spot on; cruising on a motorway, the mpg is actually very impressive. But you can get it into low tens mpg if you boot it... The thing I got warned about with this generation of V8 6-Series is the engines have a lot of little niggles that take a TON of labour, but keep a couple of grand aside each year for work and they are a lovely car. Obviously I'm biased but I think Jono's getting an upgrade from the 330i (As much as I like them. Once it's cleaned up, it'll look great.
If they are staggered 19" wheels I have a set of used tyres in my lockup in Liverpool , I'm sure they are Goodyears, still life left in them... Well done for getting a grown-up in the back 👌
For £1600 notes even if you park it on the drive and rev the conkers off it every day! It's worth for the soundtrack! Is there a manual box available for them??
If I was in my twenties I would absolutely buy that. I wouldn’t bother buying tyres for it. I’d get rid of the wheels and just have it slammed on some bigger rims. Obviously get the oil leak sorted asap
I had a 645i a few yrs ago and i can tell you that the alternator bracket gasket is a pig of a job, thats the worst one of the oil leak jobs and there's a lot of them jobs, i changed it for a Jaguar XKR 5.0 and i would never look back
I think Jono has made the right decision. £1600 for The Silver Beast. Bargain. Love a V8. Now it's over to the Reservoir Dogs, Mr Blue and Nice Guy Liam, to go to work on this. Can't wait for the next video
Mate had one 30 miles a day £1000 a month fuel ,was going to get one but went for the 3 litre instead but wow what a car best for the money is the 635d the torque is unbelievable.
Lovely car, had one back in the day, used keep a bottle of champers in the boot just incase 😂😂😂 got pulled all gge time , always like ' nice car' i was like 'yeah and ' 😂😂😂 had a 330 also, sleeper beast 😊 got stories with that one 😂😂😂
I would walk... tyres alone would be over £1k. The exhaust was probably blocked up intentionally for noise reduction on the MOT, especially if it's straight pipes.
The standard of test drive in this video is pretty disgusting, you have zero knowledge of this car ie brakes tyres. I’m all for a bit of fun but driving at those speeds under hard acceleration in built up 30mph areas is not ok. There is a time and place and that was neither. Pretty disappointing, you as a TH-camr have a responsibility when it comes to driving standards and health and safety while working on cars. You are not two 19 year olds working on a drive with little experience. Time to think about your audience.
I’m made up for Jonno.. I think he should get on the tools for this one… everyone dissing it but his other one is a worse money pit cause it doesn’t go… at least this one is like 💩 off a shovel. Lash 4 part worns on it and do the Sweeney up and down the multi on the Conny… 😂😂😂
I think he should too Donna! Ha ha the other is just a bit temperamental and he doesn't want to send it as a drift car as he doesn't trust it, itd sound awesome in the multi story 😀
The THOUSANDS that the prev owner (of about 7 years) says otherwise lol. Only selling it due to health issues, which meant it had sat unused for some time. Tbh, I'd have kept it myself, but trying to reduce the number of vehicles I own, rather than increase it.. The wife thinks 7 is more than enough for one person 😊
@RAGNAAAA Hahaha! So basically we were at Zshed getting the 330i looked at, at the same time that the 645i was booked in with Mike.. we heard it was for sale, so we came back to have a look at it, and ended up taking it away 😊
Not good when cars running as you arrive

was "a cheap car".........certainly doesn't mean it will be to run.

Yeah he is mate, top bloke 👍

Nice! Did you watch our m4 build? That was a good car, it made 475bhp on the dyno

Bit of work to be done and it will make a nice motor congrats Jono enjoy it

Ha ha rev the conkers off it 🤣 🤣 absolute belter that mate
That's a nice buy 👌 sounds mega 😎 I drove a threw when I worked at bmw and it will put smile on your face daily 😀
It was surprisingly quick too 😅
Go on Jonno 😜 deffo get on the tools, I’ve got a lovely service set you can borrow if you need it 🤣
the problem i have found more often than not with buying "Cheap" prestige cars is the amount of money it costs to make 99% of them run and look right.
Ha ha you might be right there
Nothing more expensive than a cheap German car
Bought some work there! But What an absolute BEAST!
Ha ha nice one mate 👍
If I was in my twenties I would absolutely buy that. I wouldn’t bother buying tyres for it. I’d get rid of the wheels and just have it slammed on some bigger rims. Obviously get the oil leak sorted asap

but went for the 3 litre instead but wow what a car best for the money is the 635d the torque is unbelievable.
So 30 miles a day, £1000 a month, so he got 6.3mpg 😂😂
That v8 sound yes it’ll be thirsty and expensive but it’s cheap and you can get the problems fixed well done I’m biased anyway as I love a bmw 👍
Ha ha it does sound awesome tbh
What a machine!!! Good luck with it guys
Nice one Mark 👍
Awesome Buy boys ( nice car Jonno ) better then a VW Citi Golf
Hahaha thanks Darren! Ah I'd love to import a VW Citi Golf to UK.. Maybe one day ;)
Lovely car, had one back in the day, used keep a bottle of champers in the boot just incase 😂😂😂 got pulled all gge time , always like ' nice car' i was like 'yeah and ' 😂😂😂 had a 330 also, sleeper beast 😊 got stories with that one 😂😂😂
I’d have given £1200 tops to be honest, there’s a lot of unknowns on that things but get, 12 months of fun, why not
I've never seen one that cheap, I'm looking now as a possible engine swap candidate for the capri or taxi ha h 😳
love it sounds ace great car with a few weekends work lol ❤
It sound awesome and goes well too
@@TransformotionVR i could see all youre faces all of you thinking i won’t this one lol 😜
you back in Burtonwood !!
4 new tyres needed - Matt's influence 😂 btw, would like to see this car refurbished. will you film that?
Monster! Jono
Liam is a dead ringer for Finn Russel the rugby player(well facially anyway😜).
Ha ha ill have to Google him 🤣
I would walk... tyres alone would be over £1k. The exhaust was probably blocked up intentionally for noise reduction on the MOT, especially if it's straight pipes.
There definitely not spending £1000 on tyres
Internal baffles in the exhaust had broken away, allowing the wadding to bunch up. Common on cheaper aftermarket boxes.
Yeah they tyres will definitely not cost a grand and we trust the Z shed
nice car that lads sounds great hopefully jonno can get it sorted or should i say u2 next video please
Ha ha yeah it'll definitely be us that has to work on it 😄
Car sounds great though it's going to end up costing a fortune in labour and parts keep your other bmw jonno great content lads❤
Nice one mate, it's nice to hear everyone's opinions 👍
The test-drive was great... but... as a daily driver - no thanks. I have a MB E250 AMG Coupe and it's very well mannered.
Somtimes that bores me, you can cruise this and then when you want a bit... stamp the loud pedal
Do a collaboration with 6d diesels ! He’s got a 645ci with blown head gasket in black

The sound of this car is something else.
Great video, as always❤.
I’ve seen that car being spanked around Warrington 👍
How long ago?
@@TransformotionVR I think it was sometime in the summer, around July?
Epic boys
Nice one 👍
That’s my Evri man too 😂
Ha ha same area?
Classic bmw drivers
How many BM's does a man need......Good luck Jono
Ha ha he loves them doesn't he! 🤣
What a beast of a motor 👌👌
Not bad for the money ayy? 😉
@@TransformotionVR bargain
wow i thought my E38 was quick .
What engine is in it?
I know it has it's problems but, that's a lot of car for very little money.
Now he's just got to rob a bank to pay for all the repairs. 🤣
And the fuel bill! Ha ha 😂
It's not THAT thirsty... I think I saw about 7mpg when I drove it...
@@TheZedShed 🤣
Big bill waiting to happen.🤷🏻♂️
🤣🤣
Did anyone else see Tyrion Lannister?

Why are you looking at that and you thought capri,s were hard 😂
I've never worked on classic mate
Be careful of the Police in un marked cars around Burtonwood !!
They're everywhere, I had my seat belt on tho ha ha 😂
That's one unloved motor.

Ive not a clue what this is about .
What?
Every thing about this guy is saying, WALK AWAY!........................
Whys that mate?
Cos es a scousah!
If a garage wants rid... Then it's a pig. Walk away
The owner wants rid mate, he doesn't want to spend more on it
@@TransformotionVR ohh I've took that wrong 😅 my bad... I'll put my TH-cam pencil away 😜
