BMW M5 HARTGE SPEC - £20,995.00http://www.avantgardecars.co.uk/viewcar/BMW M5 HARTGE SPEC/196/E534TKOwww.avantgardecars.co.uk

This terriffic M5 was sold new by L&C of Tunbridge Wells and was maintained by them on schedule up until 1991. However it is after this periond when things got really interesting. In the early 90's the original owner toyed with the idea of changing the car for a current E34 M5, but instead decided to upgrade his beloved E28. Martek Motorsport were chosen to carry out the work and it was decided that Hartge components would be used for the modifications. The list of work carried out is staggering. The engine was completely rebuilt with oversized pistons and a fully balanced bottom end including clutch and flywheel. The cylinder head was overhauled with new valves and guides, ports were opened and new Hartge camshafts fitted. A Hartge ECU was fitted which raised the rev limit to 7,500 RPM. A Hartge exhaust was fitted and a complete Hartge suspension package was fitted with Hartge/Bilstein dampers, springs, strut brace, anti-roll bars and negative camber top mounts. It doesn't end there though as cosmetically the car was also upgraded, carrying on with the Hartge theme a Hartge steering wheel, gear knob and foot rest were fitted along with Hartge instruments to complete the interior. Externally a Hartge rear boot spoier was fitted in place of the standard M-Tec item.

 

In more recent years further sympathetic upgrages were carried out including E34 M5 brakes front and rear, A Dastek Unichip and Evo 3 short shift kit to keep the gearchange tight and precise. The in period fitted Nakamichi stereo system was also rewired with modern cable and the car has been fitted with perfectly refurbished BMW BBS style 5 cross spoke alloy wheels with nogaro silver centres and highly polised rims.

 

This car now wants for nothing. It has been fastidiously maintained all of its life and has covered 62,000 miles since it's Hartge spec conversion. It has been the subject of a 5 page feature in May 2011 issue of Total BMW magazine and was also shown on the front cover. A quote from that feature says it all "with perfect paint, sitting just right over those BBS rims, it just takes your breath away."

This stunning vehicle has recently been the subject of a meticulous restoration, the details of which are featured in the July 2011 issue of Mercedes Enthusiast Magazine, it was also pictured on the front cover. Amazing attention to detail was taken during the resoration, the car was repainted in its original colour of brilliant silver. All chromework was re-plated where necessary, highly detailed throughout including under bonnet which is highly polished, the panel fit, which is so important on these cars is excellent.

 

The engine and mechanicals were overhauled by 190 SL specialist Brian Gunney approximately 10 years ago and the car runs and drives just as you would expect. The previous owner who commissioned the restoration of this vehicle used it for continental journeys on which the car proved to be totally reliable.

 

Having had only 3 recorded owners during it's 51 year lifetime it has an extensive history file which includes restoration photographs, copious bills, original beige log book, original German brochure, original Mercedes Benz maintenance book in German with English translation, plus details of previous restoration work.

 

Inside the car it has an original ivory steering wheel and has never had a stereo fitted thus has the original blanking plate with 190SL script, Alll of the dashboard instrument gauges have been removed and reconditioned so function as they should. A superb example of one of the prettiest Mercedes Benz cars of all time that would truely be a joy to own.
