1972 BMW 2002tii

This 1972 BMW 2002tii is powered by a fuel-injected 2.0L inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transmission and has been modified with inspiration from period Alpina A4 road and race cars. The car was manufactured on May 8, 1972, delivered to France on May 19, 1972, and imported to North America under previous ownership. The exterior is finished in Colorado Orange with matte black accents, and Alpina components include the 13″ alloy wheels, front sport seats, throttle bodies, intake manifold, textured valve cover, and exhaust manifold. The selling dealer acquired the car in April 2020 and performed approximately $5k worth of service in preparation for the sale. This Euro 2002tii is now offered by the selling dealer in Canada with transferable British Columbia registration. The body is finished in Colorado Orange with matte black on the hood, beltline, and deck lid, mimicking period Alpina race cars. Features include Cibie front fog lamps, Euro-market front and rear bumpers, a bumper-mounted rear fog lamp, and clear vinyl paint protection film on the hood, fenders, and front edge of the roof. The selling dealer notes corrosion on the lower front nose panel and the bottom of the passenger door, as well as evidence of repair to the left rear strut tower. A paint chip can be seen on the top of the right front fender. Alpina alloy wheels measure 13x.5.5″ and wear 185/70 Yokohama S306 tires. Chassis components specific to the tii model included boxed rear semi-trailing arms, special front struts, a larger brake booster, and larger front disc brakes. The interior is trimmed in black leather with matching carpets and door panels, and features Alpina sport seats, an Alpina-badged wood shift knob, a push-button Thomson tri-band radio, and a MotoMeter analog clock. The selling dealer notes that the dash is cracked near the right-side temperature control lever, the clock is inoperable, and the headliner has been patched at each C-pillar. A three-spoke Alpina-badged steering wheel fronts factory instrumentation consisting of a 220-km/h speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 24k kilometers, though total mileage is unknown. The 2.0L M10 inline-four is equipped with Kugelfischer mechanical fuel injection, and a letter from Alpina shows the engine (with cylinder head #5996) to be an Alpina A4 component. Other highlights include Alpina throttle bodies, an Alpina intake manifold, a textured Alpina valve cover, and an Alpina exhaust manifold. Output is estimated to be 160 horsepower at 6,800 rpm. The seller notes some evidence of oil leaks, and service performed in preparation for the sale included a new fuel pump, repairs to the throttle linkage, a re-cored radiator, an oil change, and a transmission fluid exchange. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a close-ratio Getrag five-speed gearbox. A Supersprint muffler has been fitted. Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery.
