The BMW Z1 was designed by Harm Lagaay in 1986. Exactly 8,000 examples of the car, which was presented in 1987, were produced between 1989 and 1991. More than three quarters of these were sold in its home market, Germany. The most striking feature of this car was the doors, which could sink into the bodywork. That body consisted entirely of Thermoplastic, moulded into body panels by General Electric. The car was also the first car in the world that could achieve 1g in cornering with standard tyres, partly because of the inverted wing profile bonnet and the transverse exhaust that also had an inverted wing profile. Initially, only 4,000 Z1s were to be produced but once the car arrived at dealers, there were already more than 5,000 orders and it was decided to double production to 8,000 units.

The car’s interior is a real eye-catcher. The bucket seats are finished in a combination of high-quality alcantara and leather with a unique camouflage pattern. The backrests of the seats are even finished in the body colour, highlighting the attention to detail.

Another striking feature of this Z1 is the beautiful leather 3-spoke steering wheel. Both the dashboard and the centre console are carefully finished in leather.

This BMW Z1 comes with the original 16-inch 7-spoke wheels, which were specifically designed for this model and are in excellent condition. The car features an original toolkit in the boot.
