Diese schöne Beispiel eines BMW e9 3.0 CS kam aus Deutschland zu uns. Wie so oft, wurde der Oldtimer vom Verkäufer optisch herausgeputzt um einen Preis zu erzielen, welcher nicht dem Marktwert in diesem Zustand entsprach. Der Wagen hatte alle, für den e9 typischen Schäden. Schweller und A-Säulen durchgerostet, daraus abgeleitet hängende Türen, Federbeindome durch, Frontschaden, Heckschaden usw. Daher zum wiederholten Male der Hinweis: Vor dem Kauf bzw. Besichtigung eines Oldtimers informieren. Das spart Ärger aber besonders viel Geld. Genau wegen den oben beschriebenen Gründen wurde am Ende aus einer Vollrestauration eine Teilrestauration. Trotzdem bekam der Wagen ein Wertgutachten mit der Note 1,5!
