The BMW 2002 and its siblings - sporty, compact and successful

September 23, 2012 — Peter Ruch (Radical-Mag)68

In 1966, BMW presented a compact saloon that would shape the image of the Munich-based manufacturer for years to come, the 1600-2. With four cylinders and two doors, the basis was laid for an entire model family that would eventually include not only a convertible (in various versions), but also an estate saloon (touring) and even a turbo model with 170 hp. The most popular model, however, was the 2002, which offered the performance of a real sports car and still provided space for a small family. This report tells the story of the 1600-2 series up to 2002, highlights some of the vehicles and provides driving impressions behind the wheel of a 2002 touring, illustrated with many pictures from the period.

White and blue Porsche competition - BMW 1600 GT versus Porsche 912

April 16, 2013 — Heinz Kranz 20

In 1967, the magazine 'hobby' compared the BMW 1600 GT, which had just emerged from the Glas 1700 GT, with the model-maintained Porsche 912 from Zuffenhausen. Although they appeared to be completely different, the comparison ended in a draw. This article reproduces the original wording of the meticulously conducted comparison test. The report is illustrated with original photos from the time.

Sports car for the masses - the people's Monteverdi from Switzerland

July 5, 2013 — Stefan Dierkes / Bruno von Rotz 31

At the end of the sixties, Peter Monteverdi presented a small sports car called the Monteverdi 2000 GTI, which was created on the mechanical basis of the BMW 2000 Ti and a body by Pietro Frua. The planned presentation fell through and since then rumors and conjectures have swirled around the Volks-Monti and its identical twin, the Frua BMW 2000 ti. This vehicle report attempts to trace the history of the small sports car and shows it in many historical and current illustrations.
