Type 3 BMW?


Anyone seen these before?

BMW 700 looks close to a Type 3 notch!

Were these sold in Australia?

Know much about them?

imo doesn't look anything like. reminds me of a Renault more than anything.

however i do find the rear end of the MG mgb striking resemblance to early notchback rear end.

Every time I see a Morris Minor from the rear, I keep thinking of a Volkswagen.

totally agree MY68VW - every time I jump in the hillclimb car it reminds me of my old type 3... thats until the v8 breaths into life.

We get MGC at work sometimes, and with the Rover 3.5 V8, they are quite a sporty car.
