For many classic car enthusiasts, the catalyst for owning a car from a particular marque stems back to the first sighting of that model and the thought, ‘one day I’m going to own one of those’ Phil O’Reilly, the owner of this glorious BMW M635CSi, clearly remembers ogling a blue example at Team McMillan in Remuera Road, Auckland, back in the mid-’80s — a time when red braces and big hair were in, and the world was our oyster.

At NZ Classic Car, we’re always enthused and fascinated by the incredible variety of classic cars that exist in this great country of ours.

Every once in a while a vehicle comes along that we’d consider unusual or unique for whatever reason, such
