Vehicle Description

1989 BMW Z1 – Only 9,800 km – Road Legal in Japan

We are pleased to offer this 1989 BMW Z1, showing just 9,800 km.

The Z1 remains one of BMW’s most distinctive and innovative models, instantly recognizable for its unique vertically retracting doors and unmistakable late-1980s design. With such low indicated mileage, this example represents an exciting opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.

The vehicle is currently registered and road legal in Japan with a valid Japanese vehicle inspection (Shaken).

The seats themselves are original; however, the seat covers have been replaced using universal aftermarket covers.

Door System – Important Notice

At present, both doors are inoperative due to unavailable components required for the door mechanism. The relevant parts and part numbers are as follows:

Door Catch: 51212291606
Door Control Unit: 61352297024
Actuator: 67162291238

These part numbers are also referenced in the repair quotation. The door issue is therefore clearly disclosed to prospective buyers.

Despite the above, this is a remarkably low-mileage example of the iconic BMW Z1, with only 9,800 km indicated, and importantly, it remains a road-legal vehicle in Japan with Japanese inspection.

A rare opportunity to acquire one of BMW’s most unconventional modern classics, suitable for a collector, enthusiast, or specialist looking for an exceptionally low-mileage Z1.

Worldwide export is available.
