Vehicle Description

Rare garage find BMW! This BMW was imported to the US from Austria in 1987. It has been garage kept since and has had limited use in the last 20 years. It still has its matching numbers M10 1990ccm 4 cyl engine and an automatic transmission.

Very clean body in original color chamonix exterior and blue interior. The body and floorpans are exceptionally clean and the car appears to have never been rusty. Any paintwork done to the car would have had to have been done prior to coming to the US in 1987.

The interior is in great shape and appears to be original. Noticeable flaws include a droopy headliner and a couple of small cracks in the dash pad. The fuel gauge and clock are not working but all other gauges work fine. I have not figured out how to work the radio yet (owners manual is in German). Heater works fine. All power windows work. Wipers and horn work. Very clean overall with nice trim and woodwork.

Engine is the original matching numbers 4 cyl. I did not see any numbers on the transmission. The car runs good but will need some sorting as the car has been sitting with minimal use for approx. 20 years. All fluids should be changed. There is a tear in the rear drive axle boot on the drivers side. There is also a hole in the muffler. Amazingly enough the car doesn't seem to leak (no drops on the ground from sitting overnight. I have put approx. 10 miles on the car. Engine runs good with no smoke or noise. Transmission shifts fine (up to 45mph). I have only driven the car up to 45 mph due to tires that are over 30 years old with major flat spots.

Overall this BMW is going to make someone a fine car ready to show or cruise with minimal sorting. Approx. 51,300 miles is believed to be original. Included are the original manuals and import papers. Clean California title.
