in this video i show and tell you why the BMW E63 635d is the best daily driver that you can buy under £8000! if you enjoy please like share and subscribe see you soon. @Autoalexv2 @AutoalexCars @TopDeadC
If you get a 635d, high miles , have injectors tested if any smoke even with dpf on. They ain't cheap to replace but cheaper than a spun bearing and engine rebuild! Can cause oil dilution if fuel leaks into sump from leaky injectors. If your oil level goes up.red flag. Dpf will clog too and will still inject diesel which....leaks into sump, more dilution...REGULAR oil changes (do not ignore oil leaks ,you risk bearing spinning )and clean that dpf of ash..change thermostats...and you'll enjoy a lovely car! M57 is a lot more "indestructible" if you keep an eye on these!

The more I watch videos like this Matt, the more I get a taste for older cars, the new ones just don’t seem to do it for me these days. Good video mate 👍🏻
4yrs ago was looking for a good tidy 335d, couldn't find one, daughter said "dad, why don't you get a 635d instead" found a good tidy 635d, black on black with wood trim. Never looked back, so glad I got the 6 over the 3 series, Fantastic car and often gets compliments from complete strangers. Excellent Video Matt. Subbed. 👍🏻
Thank you man ! I'm really enjoying it to be honest it's such a good daily and like you say gets complimented. It feels like a special car for not a huge amount of money !
Dailyed mine for almost two years now and it's such a great car. Mine is in black with Stage 1 map and sunroof, and the dark wood inserts. Also has the Logic 7 sound system which is the best stock sound system I have ever heard in a car. They are brilliant cars, mine gets between 34-36MPG long term depending on the temperature and the journeys I do.
I wish mine had the logic the sound system is great but the l322 I had was a lot better due to more base etc so I may look at upgrading. I tried to find one with wooden trim but I went for lower milage and FSH over top spec so missed out on some bits 👍🏼
This shape has grown on me a ton since it came out, its a lovely car mate, on a long cruise it would be perfect. I've driven a few cars with that engine and it is a great motor! Enjoy. Take care dude.
Lovely motor - I have the exact same car also tuned by DMS in Southampton - 635d 2010 edition sport etc. I have used it daily for 6 years and put over 50k miles on it (not really used during covid of course) Quick notes: - stock power is 286bhp - with their map easily 42mpg on motorway For the gearbox get an XHP Stage 3 map on it - different animal and it’s far quicker than stock
That's great stuff to know I did manage to get 41mpg out of the other day but my journeys are usually 20 mins long so often lower. The gearbox is the only slow thing about the car so I will have to look into that but the map has definitely made it a lot smoother !
If you don’t mind me asking who did you use for the remap and did you get the gearbox and ECU done? I’m looking at getting my 535i F11 mapped and near Southampton.
I honestly can't remember mate , they are fairly expensive as they focus on super cars however I'd rather pay the extra money then get a cheap Celtic map and blow the car up 👍🏼
