Stunning unrestored BMW 507 could fetch £1.7m at auction

A gorgeous BMW 507 is set to go under the hammer later this month, and could fetch as much as £1.7 million.

The sea green roadster is one of the incredibly rare first-series models, and was built in July 1957. Originally, the car was finished in Papyros, an off-white colour, although its third owner resprayed it to its current colour it when he first acquired it.
