SUMMARY

Rare, round tail light, car offered directly by Jay Kay of Jamiroquai fame...

 

 

DESCRIPTION

Offered for sale is a 1.573L 1972 BMW 1602 manual that has been with the current owner for the last 10 years. Coming with a partial history file, this lot's condition scores 60/135. Rare, round tail light, car offered directly by Jay Kay of Jamiroquai fame...

 

 

Not only was this Jay's first car, but he also learned to drive in it

Bought at just 22,000 miles, he covered over 30,000 in it whilst writing and touring

We understand that a lot of his first album was conceived whilst driving this car

He sold it to the band's didgeridoo player but always hoped to own it again one day

Jay finally bought it back ten years ago at 57,000 miles and has garaged it at home ever since

The intended restoration never got started, however, this is now an opportunity for someone else

Described as running and solid, this is an ideal candidate given the topicality of early BMWs

Offered at No Reserve, with the cachet of being a seventies BM and rock memorabilia, what a steal...
