A Little Gem

A little Gem - where it all began with that the poor mans Batmobile.

Before my time, in the days when owning a LHD was considered to be foreign rubbish and automatically doubled you insurance premium (so I'm told)
The 00 series was the first mass market BMW produced and according to the old man a fabulous drivers car. (He owned a 2002Tii amongst many others)

Anyone fancy a proper classic?

Thanks for the link Steve and yes it works fine. I first saw this on ebay a couple of months back, but bought the CSL instead, I tried to tempt the old man with it being RHD, but he said those times had passed long ago. More into his Tridents these days.

Thumbs up this time

In fact it's been re-listed and this time it's had a bid:

Thats friend of mine Bradley's car.
His brother is a member on here and has a SG CSL.

Nice machine but I recon (and told him) he should finish it 1st then sell.

Thanks for that Paul, the 02 looks great as is, but would look even better as a finished project are you not tempted? I am, but nowhere to store it is the current problem.

Hahaha yes I've been pretty tempted but if I go old skool it will be a MK2 Escort that takes priority.

Meeting Brad this week for a BS over a coffee so will try and avoid any tempting conversations
