We are delighted to offer this charming 1982 BMW 520i Automatic, finished in elegant Beige coachwork and presenting as a wonderfully original example.

Showing just 52,000 miles from new, this example has clearly led a sheltered life and retains a wonderfully period feel throughout. The understated Beige finish suits the crisp Paul Bracq-designed bodywork particularly well, while details such as the chrome trim, slim pillars and classic BMW kidney grille perfectly capture the restrained elegance of early-1980s German executive motoring.

Powered by BMW’s smooth and dependable 2.0-litre fuel-injected engine driving the rear wheels through an automatic gearbox, the 520i offered an ideal blend of refinement and everyday usability when new.

The BMW has also enjoyed an interesting life on screen, having been used on several film and television productions over the years, including ‘This Is England 1986’ and ‘This Is England 1990’, alongside various additional productions where it was used as background dressing.

Importantly, the BMW presents as an honest and highly original example rather than an over-restored one, something increasingly difficult to find with surviving models today. The cabin retains all the charm and simplicity of the era, while the low mileage further enhances the appeal of this increasingly collectible classic BMW saloon.

As values of early BMWs continue to strengthen, particularly unspoilt examples of landmark models, this well-preserved 520i offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a usable and characterful modern classic with genuine provenance and period charm.
