SUMMARY

An increasingly rare right-hand drive CSA that has been the subject of an older restoration and still presents well.

DESCRIPTION

  • Launched in 1968, the E9 Coupé was one of the most handsome cars ever made by BMW, sleek and elegant with an airy cabin, slim windscreen pillars and a large glass area
  • Utilising the 3-litre, M30 six-cylinder, the twin-carburettor CS produced a useful 180bhp
  • Nicely finished and expensive when new - the 3.0 CSA cost more in the UK than an Aston Martin DBS
  • UK-delivered in right-hand drive, this automatic CS was first registered here in June 1973 and is thought to be one of just 27 such examples that remain UK-registered
  • Finished in Ceylon Metallic with its original interior which shows a pleasing patina and could be enjoyed exactly as is, or improved upon depending on your requirements
  • The recorded mileage, at the time of viewing, was a believed genuine 35,830
  • We are advised that the off-side electric window is currently not functioning, a replacement motor has been fitted but the wiring will require attention
  • Has remained in storage in recent years and, although we are told that the BMW is running and driving well, an element of recommissioning may be required
  • Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to satisfy yourself that the vehicle fulfils your expectations
