VW Kombi Van Seeing Resurgence in Popularity

The Volkswagen Kombi van reached iconic status, with even a school lunch box fashioned in its image. During those early years, the Volkswagen Microbus morphed into various forms. From a cargo carrier with no windows behind the driver's seat to a windowed passenger van with three rows of seats, the possibilities seemed endless.

Classic Car Overview

1974 BMW 3.0 for sale! Motorcar Classics is proud to present this stunning 1974 BMW 3.0CS as an exquisitely upgraded example of the legendary E9 coupe, blending timeless European elegance with enhanced modern performance. Finished in classic Polaris Silver over a refined Black leather interior, this vehicle was curated by a single enthusiast owner from 2006 until 2024. During that time, it underwent a comprehensive cosmetic and mechanical transformation designed to create the ultimate reliable, long-distance touring machine.The exterior maintains the iconic pillarless silhouette but features a tasteful backdate with early-style chrome bumpers, replacing the bulky rubber units originally found on 1974 models. The aesthetic is further elevated by professional chroming of all previously anodized trim and a slightly lowered stance that sits perfectly over 17-inch multi-piece Style 5 wheels. To ensure modern visibility and safety, high-intensity H4 headlamps and period-correct Hella driving lights have been integrated into the front fascia.Under the hood, the performance has been significantly revitalized for the modern road. The original numbers-matching M30 engine was professionally rebuilt and stroked to 3.5 liters, now breathing through twin two-barrel Weber carburetors and an upgraded MSD ignition system. This potent setup is mated to a smooth automatic transmission, making it a superb grand tourer. For maximum comfort, the air conditioning system has been completely overhauled with a modern rotary compressor to ensure ice-cold performance.The cabin offers a sophisticated blend of vintage charm and thoughtful ergonomics. The front seating has been upgraded to highly supportive E24 6-series sport seats, while a period-correct Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel and a professionally recovered dashboard complete the premium feel. Entertainment is handled by an audiophile-grade Nakamichi stereo system. Complete with its original tool kit and owners manual, this E9 is a turn-key legend ready for its next chapter. Your inspection is invited.
