Description
A brilliant example of a classic sports car, this BMW has been mine for the last 11 years and has been serviced each year with an oil change alongside the recommended age/mileage advised component replacements. The car had a full underbody anti-rust treatment 10 years ago and again 5 years ago, and has not a speck of rust on it as a result. Being run on premium 98 petrol all its life, the engine has retained its power, has no mechanical issues and drives beautifully. It has wanted for nothing. However, due to mobility issues, I can no longer drive it and reluctantly must let it go. It would be entirely happy as your daily driver or a weekend car. It has just had a fresh service and four new tyres.
Special SE trim and the stronger, more reliable 2.2-litre engine, this car has given me so much joy as an open-top driving experience. It has been kept in a garage its whole life so the paint work is excellent, as is the soft top roof, with no deformation or leaks whatsoever - the roof is as new (see photos).
Sold with a comprehensive service history. The next maintenance job coming up is replacing the brake pipes, as they are starting to age. It is straightforward and cheap to swap them out with new ones so I recommend you do that in a couple of years.
Heated black leather electric seats (upgrade from standard)
Electric soft top roof (fully working, with new hall sensors so should last a lifetime)
New Roof motor and hydraulic pipe added 5 years ago - still as new.
BMW Business radio
Air conditioning
16" alloy wheels
Electric windows and mirrors
Remote central locking
Traction control, ABS, front and side airbags
I also have a bluetooth connection system installed to play music off your phone, should you want it.
This is a great opportunity to own a well-regarded roadster, in immaculate condition from a long-term owner that has looked after the vehicle well. I will miss her!
