One of the more successful designs of the micro-car era was the BMW Isetta. By 1959 they were powered by a 297cc engine that was reckoned capable of 65mph and 55mpg. Approximately 162,000 Isettas had been made by the time production ceased in 1962. The most memorable aspect of the design was that both the steering wheel and dashboard were attached to and moved with the opening fridge-like door to facilitate entry. From 1957, the two-seater Isetta incorporated sliding side windows for improved ventilation.

This 'big' Isetta 300 is finished in an attractive colour combination of white over blue evoking the 1960's and is understood to have been fully reconditioned around 1984. In current ownership since 2023 with an HPI report showing only 1 former keeper, it appears to be in good order overall on top, underneath and inside the cabin. It is believed to have covered minimal mileage in the last few years due to the vendor enjoying other vehicles in his collection. The vendor has applied for a new V5C due to misplacing it and no further paperwork is expected with this lot.
