Behold: the BMW 2002 Turbo – BMW’s first turbo powered production car, originally launched at the 1973 Frankfurt Motor Show.
Discontinued in 1974 – a casualty of the global oil crisis – only 1,672 2002 Turbos were ever made, making it an especially sought-after classic BMW.
This one – period correct, with its original livery, 2.0l, 170bhp five speed transmission, Alpina wheels, central exhaust, BMW Classic certification and a three year restoration – is a doozy.
Bidding starts at €100,000.

Maybe they’d sell the wheels to the guy with the red 635 from the other day?
They were monstrous.
Classic motor (the 2002T, not the 6!)
Yes.
That’s it.
That’s the one right there.
Lettering in mirror image on front so when you see it coming in your rearview mirror you’d move over. Like with an ECNALUBMA.
DOOG YREV!
My 3rd favourite Bimmer after the E9 3.0 CSL and the drop dead gorgeous 507 roadster.
Indeed, yes.

You know, if you ever visit Frank Keane’s on the Miler, and ask real nice, they’ll show you Mr Keane’s secret stash which includes his M1 and his 507.
That is simply wonderful. That IS my dream car :)
