Hello, I have a seemingly all original 1969 BMW 2002 with 48179 miles. I bought it from a friend who desperately needed the money, and in order that I might in turn sell it for him.

I'm not really into BMW, I've never owned one, so ask your questions accordingly. I will of course try to be as descriptive as possible and post good photos, and it is possible to ask questions of the original owner through me. Also, I am told the mileage is proper and original at 48,179 but since it's five digits I have no way to verify it wasn't rolled over.

Here is what I am aware of that the car needs:

Brake work, some wheel cylinders have been replaced, but it does need a brake line, (included).

It appears to warrant a complete going through under the hood tuneup wise. I presume it hasn't been on the road for around 13 years since last registration expired in 2001. Car was in storage. This BMW does run and drive and has low miles. Other than that I have no extensive history. We put some non ethanol gas in it, drove it onto a trailer, and brought it home, that's about it, Only drove it a few hundred feet in total perhaps in my driveway since the brakes weren't pressurized. This means that this car has likely never seen ethanol.

All in all, you'll see the rockers could use some attention, structurally however, this car is very meaty. Heavier thicknesses than typical by today's body standards were used. This little piece of history is quite salvageable in my opinion.

I also have a box full of extra items for the car, including the original trailer hitch that was produced as original equipment for this car. I noticed an extra alternator, extra taillights, and a lot of misc items.

Bid in confidence, I've been on ebay for over 13 years, never a negative, and I used to be quite an active buyer and seller. At any rate, this car isn't a show stopper in it's current shape, but well worth a full restoration for the right collector who wants to oversee the restoration their own way, or for someone who just wants a really cool and rare car. Bid accordingly, and you are buying the car as is of course. There's also no title with something this old. The serial number doesn't have standard 17 like a vin, alternatively there is a signed over registration to transfer ownership, typical of the year I understand, and at least in NY it's no problem.

Car is for sale locally so the right to end early and cancel the auction is reserved.

Anyone wanting additional photos please contact me, i'd be glad to even take a video of the car running etc. Also of note is that floor pans and such are in very solid shape, as is the trunk. I can also be reached via phone, at 585-310-1803 with any questions.

I neglected to mention that I do have all four original hubcaps. Some are in good shape, some are dinged up a little, decent overall.

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles

Mon, May 13 2024

It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ PicksÂ” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car Â— giving it a numerical score out of 10 Â— every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.

Petrolicious carves up the road with a pumpkin-colored BMW 2002

Wed, Nov 25 2015

Sometimes the best way to learn a skill the right way is to completely screw things up the first time. Carter Kelly Kramer figured out that lesson during years of restoration work on his 1976 BMW 2002. What he lacked in talent, Kramer made up with dogged perseverance until he had the pumpkin-colored BMW in this week's video from Petrolicious. The problems started the moment Kramer bought the 2002 on eBay. It turned out to have rotten floors, no brakes, and plenty of other issues. However, Kramer was 16 and thought he could fix everything that was wrong. It was long repair process with a multitude of problems. Kramer even briefly sold the car. Kramer's tenacity eventually resulted in the orange 2002 that he has today. After all the work, the classic BMW is now far from stock, but the mods express Kramer's dream for the car. This engrossing story of determination also introduces a new opening for Petrolicious' videos. It also has a redesigned website. Related Video:

BMW preparing 'optimized driveline' for i3, provides more range

Tue, Nov 24 2015

Autocar reports that BMW is preparing upgrades for the all-electric i3 that will greatly extend its range. Company sources called it an "optimized driveline," powered by a new, 22-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. That's the same capacity as the battery in the current hatchback but it will have a higher density. Combined with improved electronics and new software for battery cooling and the electric motor, Autocar's unnamed BMW source said the new internals will be good for "well over 124 miles in real-world use." The Environmental Protection Agency rates the present i3 as having 81 miles of range, meaning this tweaked version would be a 50-percent improvement if that range number applies to the US market (it's likely the more lenient European number, since Autocar is a UK publication). BMW said the update takes advantage of gains in battery efficiency over the past two years. The i3 with the range extending engine would also get the update, and current owners will reportedly (and surprisingly) be able to purchase the revised powertrain for retrofitting. The Autocar report appears to back up a recent article in German newspaper Die Zeit in which BMW CEO Harald Kruger said the the i3 will get more range next year, and "Another technology leap is going to come in three or four years." The i3 was designed for to make these kinds of upgrades easy to manage. We wait to find out when it will be available, whether it will increase the price of a new car, and how much it will cost current owners to retrofit.
