BMW 315/1, 319/1

2-seater sports.

The classical early sports BMW with swept tail and rear wheel spats; wheelbase and chassis specification stock, but an extra carburettor boosts power to 40/55bhp according to capacity - 2-litres will do over 80mph and are very rare. Quite a few 55s with Reutter's pretty two-seater cabriolet body were sold here, but this wasn't regarded as a 'sports' type in Germany.
