1972

1971 wurde der BMW 2800 CS durch den 3.0 CS ersetzt. Eine BMW 3.0 Occasion aus den 70er Jahren finden Sie auf Online-Plattformen in der Schweiz. Wenn Sie einen BWM 3.0 kaufen möchten, dann beachten Sie aufgrund des unterschiedlichen Zustandes der angebotenen Oldtimer die grossen Preisunterschiede. Sollten Sie sich entschliessen, Ihren BMW 3.0 verkaufen zu wollen, dann treffen Sie sicher auf einige interessierte 3.0-Fans. Der BMW 3.0 war als 3.0 CS und als 3.0 CSi und 3.0 CSL erhältlich. Si war die ab Herbst 1971 gebaute Modellvariante mit Bosch-D-Jetronic-Benzineinspritzung. Der CSi wurde 8‘144 mal hergestellt. Der E9 Coupé, wie die eigentliche Verkaufsbezeichnung lautete, war nicht als Diesel, sondern nur als Benziner auf dem Markt. In Zusammenarbeit mit Alpina entstanden ab 1971 3.0 CSL Coupés für den Tourenwagensport. Heute gibt es mit einer 3-Liter-Maschine ausgestattet den BMW Alpina Biturbo, der je nach Ausstattung für den deutschen Markt mit einem Neupreis von mindestens 70.000 € angegeben ist. Der Biturbo V8 Motor ist im Alpina B7 verbaut. 1977 holte Alpina den Europameistertitel mit einem CSL-Rennwagen. Ein ganz anderer aus der BMW-Welt ist der BMW 114.

This BMW 3.0 CS was sold new on June 8, 1972 to Bernard Von Ammon of San Francisco, California, but the story goes back quite a bit further than that. Von Ammon had owned a 2000 CS that he had been very happy with, so in January 1971 he ordered a new 2800 CS through Weber Motors in San Leandro to his personal specifications. He was more than willing to wait the estimated three months for delivery, but was informed in May, five months later, that there had been a mix-up at the US distributor and that his car had in fact not been ordered at all. The owner of Weber Motors, after a trip to the BMW factory, assured Von Ammon that he had straightened the matter out and that he would instead be receiving a newer 3.0 CS with its more powerful 2,985cc 190hp engine, again to his specifications, in three more months. The months passed once more and there was still no BMW. Von Ammon spoke with someone from the importer, Hoffman Motors, but again nothing came of it. Dock strikes on both coasts of the US were not helping matters.

The car is finished in red with a black leather interior and is equipped with a sunroof, aftermarket CD player and desirable Alpina bits including wheels, suspension, steering wheel and shift knob. The leather in the front has been redone while the back seats remain original. The wood dash is mellowed and lovely. It is a straight, sound car that has neither received nor ever needed significant restoration. Given the ordeal he had to go through to receive the car, Von Ammon took special care of his 3.0 CS and it is fully documented from the communication among him, Hoffman, Weber and BMW to its maintenance history through to his passing in 1979. Its subsequent owners have taken similarly good care of it, and it has remained very pretty and solid. A lovely, honest and cared for car with a neat story behind it, this 3.0 CS is a great and usable example of a car that is rarely this well-documented or well-preserved.
