Only 200 BMW 1800 Ti / SA were built by BMW in 1965. This is a homologated racing car, where BMW picked the best they had on the shelves to win in racing. The specifications are extremely different from a standard 1800 Ti. The 1800 Ti / SA is BMW's answer to the Lotus Cortina or the Alfa gta. This is a genuine 1800 Ti / SA, and probably the only one in Scandinavia. In addition to being a competent racing car, the car has road identity an may be registered. Cars like this rarely come on the market, so if you dream of a Ti / SA then this is the time to act.
The car can be used in historical racing. Has HTP papers and can be used on Goodwood Revival "St. Mary's Trophy", U2TC, Masters Pre-66 Touring cars and many other race classes.
FACTS
Vin: 995054.
This is number 54 built from a total of 200 cars.
This is also a European edition, not American.
This car was imported from Germany in 1967 by then BMW Norway employee Egil Andresen. He used the car both as a used car and in competition. He participated in a number of races and events until 1971. Then it was put into storage until it was found in the 2000s by Jack Stenslet. Stenslet is well known in Norwegian racing environments, first and foremost as an exhaust guru, but also a pedantic car restorer. In 10 years, the car was built to be better than new and, not least, extremely competitive. “Attention to detail” is simply fabulous.
The car was fully restored over a 10-year period from approx. 2004 without considering costs.

HISTORY
This is a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of racing history from the heyday of asphalt racing. Back then legends such as Jacky Ickx, Dieter Quester and Freddy Kottulinsky drove for BMW. The 1800 Ti / SA had tremendous success, winning the German National Championship in 1964 with Hubert Hahne. That same year, Hahne and co-driver Rauno Aaltonen fought for first place in the Spa 24-hour race against the Mercedes-Benz 300SE. In the end, Mercedes pulled the longest straw, but the Munich company had always made its mark. The following year, 1965, Pascal Ickx and Gerald Langlois secured BMW's first of many wins at Spa Francorchamps. First standard car that went under 10 minutes on the Nurburgring.
The car comes ready to go and reset with some extra parts. A unique car and history for a BMW connaisseur
