Paul's 2002. Part 1. The Car. The Story.

With 270+ hp from an S14B25 EVO III engine Paul has built his dream 2002 just the way he wanted it. And his orange 2002 is really something special.


We met Paul and his son Rick in The Netherlands on a sunny summerday and actually the 2002 had just been finished the day before. We were warmly welcomed into his beautiful home, and after a little while we got into business and went downstairs to see Pauls collection of BMWs.


And what a nice collection! It currently counts several 02´s, Touring, Turbo, TiLux, some E30 M3´s, E30 convertibles and the rare M4 GTS with only 700 produced.



Paul started buying 02´s already at a young age, when yiu coul dbuy them for just around 500-700 € (those were times) and has owned more than 20. He has been in the dutch Touring Club for more than 35 years, now as chairman, and during the years he has collected and restored several BMW's.


When builiding this 2002 Paul wanted to keep things original BMW, not original 2002, but everything is from other BMWs like the ventilated rear discs from an E30 325iX, and that continues throughout the car.


We hope you will enjoy this video as much as we did making it, and if you do please subscribe and hit the notification button for more modified BMWs coming up next year. Part 2 on Paul's 2002 will also come next year, and in that part we go much more into the details and modifications.


This video is filmed by one man using a GoPro Hero5 for all driving shots and other car shots, and a Sony A7 iii for the rest.
