Thanks, Scott,

 

I wondered where Les found the VIN!  At least I know that FB = Facebook.  That's about as close as I've come to a Facebook account!

 

Best regards,

 

Steve

So guys, some missing information for you:

 

I owned that car some years back when I lived in Port Elizabeth.  The photos shown earlier are in front of my house at the time.  When I got the car, it was pretty high spec with those Recaro's, dogleg 5 speed and LSD optioned as standard from new.  I tried to trace back the history of the car to see if it was possible an Alpina but hit a blank.

 

At the time I was restoring me Tii Alpina A4 clone.  The seats, gearbox and LSD are in my Tii Alpina.  I refitted the parts from my Tii into the Ti and sold it to a guy in Johannesburg called Jaco.  He restored the car and then on sold it.  About a year ago, I tried to buy the car back and reached a deal with the owner.  The only snag was that the papers had gone missing and while I was waiting on them to be re-issued, he sold the car to the guy who listed the car on this site.  The car has subsequently been flipped again.

 

Hindsight is a bitch - I should never have sold the car in the first place...........

Great info - thanks for sharing that.  I seriously thought about buying this car, too, but the logistics ar daunting and just dealing with someone that far away, and not being able to really see the car...a bridge too far.  Looked like a great car, from what I could tell!

Thanks so much for the fill in. Did you leave your details with the new buyer? I know you did chat to him after we spoke. If not drop me a line a sulli@vintagemotors.co.za and I will forward on. 

It was a truly fantastic car. The weekend before it was sold, my 4 year old son and I did a weekend trip with the car, he even got the chance to steer it a bit on the way to the fishing site, with the biggest smile on his face.

So Sulli, after seeing the Recaro seat in the tii I purchased a nice early 911 sport seat for my tii my question as posted earlier.  How is the seat adapted to the 2002 sliders?  Can't wait to get it installed.

thanks,

Rusty

ps:  mine is a Sahara beige color 72 with an Alpina dogleg 5 speed, just a nice drive.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
