1973 – BMW 5 Series 3.5 E3 SALOON 5DR PETROL 5 SPEED MANUAL – £14000

Discover a rare automotive gem: a 1973 BMW E3 2500, meticulously transformed into a high-performance classic that not only turns heads but is also ULEZ compliant. This left-hand drive beauty, originally imported from Sweden, has been lovingly upgraded by BMW specialists Hughes Brothers Ltd, featuring a powerful M30B34 (E28) 535 engine and 5-speed manual transmission. With over £5,000 invested in mechanical refinements, including a full engine rebuild and comprehensive undercarriage restoration, this vehicle offers both reliability and vintage charm.

The car boasts a fascinating history, complete with a greyish-blue respray in 2020 and a sumptuous blue leather interior that exudes character through its carefully preserved patina. While the bodywork shows some signs of age and rust, this only adds to its unique appeal, presenting an exciting project for the next passionate owner. Having previously proven its touring credentials by comfortably completing the Le Mans Classic journey, this BMW comes with a comprehensive history file, original documentation, spare parts, and two keys – making it an irresistible proposition for the discerning classic car enthusiast who appreciates a vehicle with both heritage and potential.
