HISTORY
BMW launched an elegant four-seat coupé in 1965 with the 2000 C and 2000 CS. The body was built by Karmann, and the model is regarded as the predecessor of the famous E9 coupés (2800 CS, 3.0 CS and CSL). The 2000 C is the slightly more sedate version, with a single carburettor and 100 hp. Its striking front end with large, wraparound headlights makes the model instantly recognisable.
This car was first registered in Germany on 30 May 1968. After a period out of use, it was registered again in April 2024 following a roadworthiness inspection (HU) at KÜS. A new roadworthiness inspection and a classic-car appraisal were carried out by TÜV Nord in November 2024, both without defects.
EXTERIOR
The car is finished in red and has chrome bumpers, the characteristic BMW kidney grille and steel wheels. According to the TÜV classic-car report, the bodywork, paint and lettering are original or period-correct. The underside is finished in red and looks well maintained. There is no bitumen underneath; it has been completely resprayed. The paint itself has imperfections.
INTERIOR
The interior has black upholstery with perforated centre sections and wooden accents on the dashboard and door panels. A radio-cassette player is fitted to the centre console. The seats, door panels and dashboard are in good condition. According to the TÜV report, the seats, seat belts, dashboard and other equipment are original or an approved, period-correct version. A different steering wheel is fitted (ATIWE hub); this is officially listed in the registration documents.
ENGINE AND TECHNICAL DETAILS
The car has BMW's two-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, producing 74 kW (100 hp) at 5,500 rpm, paired with an automatic transmission. The top speed is 172 km/h. The kerb weight is 1,180 kg. According to the TÜV report, the engine, fuel system, exhaust, gearbox, suspension, brakes and steering are original or an approved, period-correct version. No defects were found during the roadworthiness inspection in November 2024, and the brakes performed well. The car drives, shifts and brakes well.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
