BMW Isetta Bubblewindow with PAV trailor for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.05) based on 317 votes
 

 This is a rare BMW Isetta Bubblewindow 4 wheeler manufactured in February 1956 (according to the BMW museum in Munich). It was imported into England and sold in 1957 by John S Truscott Ltd. a London motor dealer. His label is still in the car. It is thought that there are 12 of these cars left in the UK and only 3 on the road. I am not sure how many there are in USA.

It has been restored and is in very good condition.   All the mechanics (steering. brakes etc) have been renewed and the Engine has been rebuilt The floor and most of the body is original but the lower front wing panels have been replaced.

I use the car once or twice a week for local trips and it is very reliable. I have used it occasionally this winter but it gets most outings in the summer months. It drives the best of all the Isettas I have owned (6) probably because the others were 3 wheelers.

The car is similar to the 1955 car displayed in the Munich Museum except that the headlamps are the smaller type. and the Z moulding is not original.

The car comes with its own trailor.   This is a PAV single wheel trailor made in Czech Republic in the 1960s.   These trailers were originally for the Jawa motorcycle but can be seen especially behind the occasional Harley. They are becoming very rare as well.


Delivery is possible.
