BMW 2002 TII Round Light

The '2002' is one of BMW's most famous automobile models and whilst the '1500' had begun BMW's reputation for sports saloons, the 2002 may be considered its ultimate incarnation.

As sales climbed for BMW throughout the 1960s across Europe, their attention started to focus on Motorsport and their desire to create ""The Ultimate Driving Machine"". The first model to reflect this was the '2002', introduced in 1968 and their high-performance version, the '2002 Tii', quickly followed in 1970 with a more powerful engine giving 120bhp, a 5-speed gearbox and uprated suspension and brakes.

The two-litre version of the Michelotti-designed two-door cemented the company's reputation for compact sporting saloons and served as the forerunner of the BMW '3' Series. The Tii features a number of other mechanical modifications that makes the car more fun and more desirable as a collector's car.
