Seller's comments:
When the E30 BMW was launched in 1982, it was initially only offered in a two-door saloon shell. BMW had no immediate plans to offer a cabriolet, although they knew there was a demand for a soft top. So in co-operation with Karosserie Baur, BMW offered a roof conversion as an expensive optional extra, which saw the main roof skin and rear window removed and replaced with a removable hard top sunroof and folding rear hood. This conversion meant that the car was a targa, making it visibly different from the later cabriolet versions BMW eventually produced themselves. This is a very rare car and head-turner - fully serviced this week and running well. M series leather seats, Scorpion stainless steel exhaust, Toyo tyres, BBS alloys, Alpine CD/USB head unit and Alpine R series custom speakers, fully functioning electric aerial, battery isolator, model specific 316 vintage number plates. Last NCT passed with zero advisories, not due another NCT until 2020. Overhaul service, gearbox linkage, brake calipers and tune up carried out last year by a specialist German master mechanic, alternator reconditioned. Steering wheel and gearstick gaiter re-stitched with new leather. New headliner for sunroof fitted, front sunroof section recovered last year. Rear hood has a few patches but is watertight. Comes with tonneau cover for hood. If you were fussy the rear hood could be replaced as the window is a little clouded. It never bothered me as I usually drive with the roof down. A new replacement rear hood including window can be sourced online for around 380 euro. Always garaged and only taken out on dry days. Located in Dunfanaghy, Co. Donegal. Owned by me for 3 years. I fancy a change but will only sell if the right buyer comes along. 56 euro tax and around 200 euro per year to insure. This is an appreciating classic - No silly offers please. Message me via Done Deal for more information. Thanks for looking.
