All convertibles were produced by the coachbuilder 'Baur' in Stuttgart. These cars are among the rarest BMW's around and are highly sought after.
This very car was produced on the 11th of March 1970 and was delivered to BMW of Italy in Palazzolo on the 24th of March 1970. The car was factory delivered in this color 085 Chamonix White. Sold new in the Palermo, Sicily area and first registered on the 23rd of January '71 to a certain mr./mrs. Rotelli. The original Sicilian registration (Libretto) is present!
