BMW 2002 Touring

Info

Very nice BMW 2002 Touring in Chamonix White (085), with a dark blue leather interior. The car is an original Belgium delivered example and it covered only 109.116 km since 1973. It features the original BMW BBS wheels and drives very smoothly for a car that’s 48 years old.

The last MOT / TC shows no remarks on the condition of the car.

It comes with two sets of keys, an ‘instruktionsbok’ and ‘handleiding’. A ‘Vehicle Certificate’ by BMW Classic / BMW Group Archives is ordered. A taxation report is available on request.

(*) The 1600-2, as the first "02 Series" BMW was designated, was an entry-level BMW, and was smaller, less expensive, and less well-appointed than the New Class Sedan on which it was based. BMW's design director Wilhelm Hofmeister assigned the two-door project to staff designers Georg Bertram and Manfred Rennen. The 23 cm (9.1 in) shorter length and wheelbase and lighter weight of the two-door sedan made it more suitable than the original New Class sedan for sporting applications. As a result, the two door sedan became the basis of the sporting 02 Series.

Beginning in 1968, a convertible based on the 02 body was built by Karosserie Baur. A hatchback, called the Touring model, was developed from the 02 body, being available from 1971. Only 25,827 Touring models were sold, therefore the models were discontinued in 1974.
