1974 Bmw 2002 Tii - Very Clean - Survivor - All Original - Matching Numbers on 2040-cars
Fort Worth, Texas, United States
|
You are contemplating the purchase of one of the most iconic vehicles ever to roam the face of this earth.
Yes, you are looking at the legendary BMW 2002 tii, the car that saved BMW and set the standard for small performance sedans. Find any legitimate automobile-related "best of..." or "greatest ever..." list and it will likely contain the BMW 2002tii. It is just that significant of a car. About this particular example: It is an original, matching numbers tii. Prior to my purchasing the car, it was solely owned by an active duty officer in the U.S. Air Force (YES, it was a one-owner car!!!) With it's owner being in the Air Force, the car traveled around quite a bit. Purchased in Fort Worth, Texas, the car has service records from Georgia, Florida, California, and Hawaii. Previous owner took VERY GOOD care of this car. Did have top-end work and the engine honed and re-ringed at about 60,000. Receipts show lots of newer parts (radiator, drive shaft, fuel pump) and continuous maintenance. When I purchased the car, it had just been brought out of a 9 year hibernation. It ran but the tires were crap and one of the brake calipers was frozen. I bought the car because there is VERY LITTLE RUST on this car. There is some on drivers side (jack fixture) and around the rear window but compared to what other cars deal with, this is insignificant. The frame rails and rockers are SOLID. The shock towers in the rear are SOLID. Interior is in outstanding condition. One SMALL tear in the headliner. NO TEARS in the seats. Carpet is not torn but is faded. Dash is in outstanding condition. A couple very small cracks where the gauge surround levels out but no other cracks. Paint is in very good condition. Car is currently missing belt trim on driver's front fender and I removed the lower rocker molding to get pics. Both are included with car. Since owning the car, I have completed the following work: 1. New Tires (Kuhmo Solus) 2. Rebuilt the entire brake system. This was not just a brake job - I refurbished or replaced almost every part of the system. Work included: a. new BMW rotors3. Inspected / Refurbished fuel delivery system - Here, I inspected gas tank, cleaning pick-up screen, replaced all rubber fuel lines (mostly with BMW parts), replaced the main fuel filter in the engine bay, inspected screen in fuel pump (not there), replaced all three rubber isolators for fuel pump assembly, placed another fuel filer between tank and pump. Tank was immaculate. 4. Rebuilt the front end of the car - this included new tie rods, new center link, new idler bushings (blue BMW), new subframe bushings for connecting link, new sway bar bushings, new Boge strut inserts, new BMW foam bumpers, all hardware yellow cad plated. 5. Replaced lots of miscellanous stuff - rubber bellow from air filter to throttle body, new rubber washers for air cleaner assembly, new air filters, new battery, recent oil change with Brad Penn Green Oil, BMW oil filter, new shifter knob, and probably some things I cannot think of. 6. New plugs, rotor, distributor cap, plug wires 7. Flushed cooling system, replacing coolant with BMW smurf juice. Bottom line, this car is a driver. It stops VERY well, shifts great, and runs quite well for not having had a proper tune up. Lots of pictures so you can get a sense of how solid this car is. If you have any question, let me know and I will be happy to get back with you. Included with car: 1. New cooling and heater hoses and thermostat 2. Ireland Engineering Pedal Rebuild kit 3. BMW foam cover for pedal box (under car) and rubber isolating pad (inside of car) 4. Blunttech heater valve rebuild kit 5. Oil filters 6. Factory Service Manual (2 volume set) |

Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision
Tue, 11 Dec 2012It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.
Check out the press release below for your day's dose of jargon and all the winners.
Cafe racer motorbikes storm Japan
Fri, 22 Nov 2013Japan may be best known, at least among motorcycle enthusiasts, for its sport bikes. But as we found at the Tokyo Motor Show this year, Japanese motorcycle manufacturers are capable of producing all kinds of motorbikes. And to our delight, that includes cafe racers.
Along with the myriad electric bikes, dirt bikes, crotch rockets and scooters, the halls of Tokyo's Big Site convention center this year were full of the retro-infused rides we love. Chief among them was the Bolt (shown above) which Yamaha exhibited alongside their various electric two-wheelers, sporting a delicious metallic blue paintjob, inverted handlebars and hanging mirrors, machined metal bits, blacked-out trim and saddle brown leatherwork.
Honda was also on hand with a new EX version of its '70s-style CB1100 retro roadster in sinister and low-key matte black. And this was our first chance to check out BMW Motorrad's new birthday present to its 90-year-old self, the R NineT, a model recently unveiled at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. But one of the most amusing retro rides we came across was the Honda Monkey Limited, a mini bike that makes the new 125cc Grom (which was displayed alongside it) look positively gigantic.
2014 BMW 4 Series convertible spotted
Thu, 27 Jun 2013We've seen a few spy shot packages featuring the upcoming BMW 4 Series Convertible already, but never with the car quite so naked as in this latest batch. Nabbed just outside the BMW Nürburgring workshop in Germany, this Melbourne Red 4 Series also shows the M Sport package for the first time.
With all of the cladding removed, we can see that the convertible shares the 4 Series coupe's great-looking nose and front end, though the resolution of that folding hard top into the rear bodywork remains a bit harsh.
With the 4 Series coupe now completely official, we have a pretty good idea of what the powertrain lineup for the 'vert will be. We'll be pretty surprised if a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and a 3.0-liter six-cylinder turbo aren't the go-to engines at launch. Production of the droptop is likely to begin at the end of the year, so start bugging your local BMW dealer.
