Launched in 1937. the first BMW 327 was a cabriolet model. br/>followed in 1938 by a fixedhead coupé version. This was shorter and
lower than its saloon counterpart but shared the famous BMW twin
'sausage' (more recently reduced to a twin
'kidney') grill and a streamlined form representative of
the more progressive designs of the 1930s. With its great style. br/>comfort and genuine four-passenger capacity. it rendered
most other middle-price sports cars crudely old-fashioned.
Mechanically. the car utilised the innovative hydraulic brake
control. gearbox. clutch and suspension system first seen on the
326. Also shared was the 1971cc. straight six power
plant. although the 327 boasted a modest power increase to 55bhp.
The advertised top speed of 78mph/125kph constituted a useful
performance advantage for the shorter car. The BMW 327 was also
available with the BMW 328 engine in 1937 to 1941 and named the
327/28.

This most elegant of examples is a late lefthand drive example
manufactured in 1941; it is not a factory 327/28 but a
standard 327 albeit with the 328 engine fitted very early on in its
life. This interesting and practical pre-war sports tourer is
presented in stunning two tone black/cream paintwork and tan
interior. It was part of a large private Swedish collection and an
excellent and thoroughly usable all-round. late pre-war German 2+2
drophead touring car. It has been running with the more desirable
straight six. 328 engine since the mid/late 1950's and is
accompanied by a comprehensive history file. BMW 327's are fabulous
and this one. utilising the famous 328 engine. makes it both quick
and far more desirable. Presented in superb. ready to use
condition. it runs on 328 wheels and would form the centrepiece to
any pre war/BMW collection. A wonderful opportunity to
acquire factory-certified touring sports car from the pre-war
era and one of the most elegant of cars suitable for
showing or driving at the most prestigious events around the
world.
