1980 BMW R100RS

Highlights

  • In current ownership for five years
  • Garage stored
  • UK-registered example

The Appeal

The R100RS was amongst the first production motorcycles to feature a full aerodynamic fairing, designed in a wind tunnel by Hans Muth, and those retro-futuristic lines are still a handsome visage today. It's a long-legged, air-cooled twin-cylinder at its most enduring, which has earned it a devoted following.
This 1980 example has been with its current owner for five years, during which time it has been garage-stored. It's been a much-loved, well-used example, and has no doubt got many miles ahead of it.

BEFORE YOU BUY 
This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following: 
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions.. 
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee  be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates. 
✓ This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is’ basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind. 
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing. 
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence. 
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance.
