Description

A comprehensive pictorial history of BMW cars covering the postwar models right through to 2013, when electric and hybrid models started to make an appearance.

The detailed text covers all model ranges, and includes full specs, colour variations and styling details. Illustrations include original line drawings, black & white plus colour period photos, and interior detail. Sports derivatives, limited editions, vans, estates and coupes are included, along with a section on motorsport achievements and TV/Movie appearances. Contemporary factory advertising slogans are also featured throughout. Complementing the historical content, technical specifications, ongoing production changes and build figures are included for completeness, making this the ideal reference work for model identification and authenticity.

This title is one of several that Trevor has written for Veloce's hugely successful A Pictorial History series, and is a bookshelf-must for anyone interested in a slice of BMW motoring heritage.

Born in the 1960s, Trevor Alder was raised and educated in Essex, England and was eagerly involved in the family horticultural business from a young age. He moved on to become a technical author in the data communications business, employed first by Marconi then BT in his home town of Ipswich. He now works in the electricity distribution industry.
Trevor has been an eager collector of historical printed material from a young age, which has led on to the publication of several books. His collection includes full runs of several UK motoring magazines dating back 90 years, as well as a collection of early Range Rovers.
In 2006 he and his father self built a six-wheel Land Rover which they drove to the Sahara desert and back. Trevor was also responsible for the Transport Source Books road-test reprint book series back in the 1990s.
