1974 BMW 1602 Test Drive
Initially known as the 1600-2, as the first 02-Series’ was a new entry-level BMW, created as a logical down-scaling of the 1500-2000. The 1600-2 (the -2 meaning two-door)was launched at the Geneva auto show in March 1966and was sold through 1975, with its name simplified to 1602 in 1971. With 85bhp from its M10 engine, the 1602 won friends for its excellent dynamics and brilliant handling – in the dry.
