Beschreibung
He has restored the car, and as a motorsports enthusiast, he has given it a sportier look and equipment than the original. Most of the original parts are included, such as the steering wheel, seats, wheels, hubcaps, etc. It’s no surprise that a BMW 700 takes on this character, as it was relatively common in rallying and on tracks like Skarpnäck in its time. Today, it’s featured in historic racing, especially on the continent. The odometer reads 427 km, having rolled over at 99,999 km, likely only once, so the total mileage should be 100,430 km.
The car comes with original documents, protocols, receipts, extensive brand and model documentation, articles, and photos from the restoration. The car is ready to drive.

Zustand technisch
Test-driven at a relaxed pace on a small country road, but when the current owner drove it, the pace was much quicker. Starts easily and runs smoothly in both the engine and drivetrain. Steering, clutch, shifting, and brakes are all in good working order, with tolerances typical for a 65-year-old car of this type. The car hasn’t been inspected on a lift, but it has been restored, and according to the owner, great care has been taken with the mechanics and undercarriage. From what could be seen, everything looked good. No remarks from the vehicle inspection.
-

Zustand gesamt
A well-restored car where everything appears to work as intended. The small cars from the early 60s are motor-historically significant and charming vehicles, from the era when car ownership became widespread across Europe. As such, a BMW 700 stands out as a delightful classic and enthusiast car.

Fakten zum Modell
Back to the 700 model, introduced in 1959. It wasn’t part of BMW’s premium line, but it was crucial to their survival. The 700 was partly based on the earlier model 600, itself an upgrade of the Isetta microcar, featuring a two-cylinder boxer engine—originally 585 cm³ but now increased to 697 cm³, producing 30 hp. The body was now a unibody design, with styling by Michelotti—Italian design being trendy at the time. The car finally looked like a proper car, with its design reflecting trends of the era, with straight lines and small tailfins reminiscent of Fiat, Peugeot, and BMC. The front had similarities with cars like the VW Type 3. The first model was a coupé, which was also in vogue then. A traditional two-door sedan followed. As early as 1961, the coupé received higher compression and twin carburetors, adding 10 more spirited horsepower. That same year, a cabriolet was introduced with the same technology and performance. Demand was high, and customers often had to wait for their new car. Production continued until 1965, just as the new 02 series was on the horizon. In total, 185,000 units were produced, of which about 11,000 were coupés. From the start, the 700 was a popular and relatively successful racing car. Notable figures like Jacky Ickx and Hans Stuck competed in BMW 700s back in the day.
