This BMW 2002 is a svelte classic coupe, which has spent time as an exhibit displayed in the Brisbane Motor Museum. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 2.0-litre ‘M10’ inline-four, delivering around 74kW to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. Spanning 2005 to 2008, this car is noted to have benefitted from a bare-metal repaint, some interior retrim work, as well as mechanical refurbishment that included an engine rebuild, reconditioning of the gearbox, and a brake and suspension overhaul. The odometer indicates 89,145 km, though this is not warranted. This 2002 is finished in red over a black vinyl-trimmed interior, featuring a wood veneer instrument cluster trim inlay and a wooden gear knob. It rides on a set of 13-inch steel wheels, fitted with a set of Ovation Ecovision tyres. Equipment includes a heated rear screen, front quarter light windows, push-out rear quarter light windows, heater and ventilation controls, and a Protech radio cassette. The car is now fitted with Weber carburettors and a sports exhaust system. The car comes with the owner’s handbook and service booklet, some period brochures, a Haynes workshop manual, the spare wheel and tool kit, a selection of service and maintenance invoices, a selection of keys, and a Dinky BMW 2000 model. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: since the various refurbishment works carried out across 2005 and 2008, the car has been garaged and used sparingly. Inside, there is a crack on the seam at the rear of the dashboard. The latest service was carried out during April 2024 at approximately 89,000 km by RX Automotive, this included engine oil and oil filter replacements and an inspection. Prior to this, in April 2023 at 86,000 km the engine oil and filter were changed and an inspection was performed. The seller notes that during their ownership the car has been detailed and ceramic coated in preparation for its storage in the Brisbane Motor Museum. The car benefitted from a mechanical restoration in 2008 which included an engine rebuild, gearbox reconditioning, and a brake and suspension overhaul. This BMW 2002 is a svelte classic sports coupe, benefiting from prior restoration work around 15-20 years ago. It has spent time as an exhibit displayed in the Brisbane Motor Museum and would now make a characterful addition to any marque enthusiast’s collection, for weekend drives and visits to classic car shows alike.
