 | The “old” BMW a woman in London was looking to sell has turned out to be a legendary BMW that fell off the collector car world's radar 25 years ago. |  |
 | The 1979 M1 was created to run on liquefied petroleum gas, or autogas. BMW produced 453 M1s from 1978 to 1981. By adding twin-turbos to the M1’s inline-6-cylinder engine, this example produced 410hp. On October 17, 1981 the car set an unsanctioned speed mark of 187.3 mph. A huge number for it's time. The car will be auctioned at Coys'Techno Classica event in Essen, Germany, on April 13. Despite needing extensive restoration, the car is guaranteed to attract attention. |
