Unbeatable BMW: Eighty Years of Engineering and
Motorsport Success
Jeremy Walton, Foreword by Karl-Heinz
Kalbfell, Foreword by Jochen Neerpasch, Hardcover, Robert
Bentley Publishers, August 1998
Unbeatable BMW is the comprehensive
history of BMW competition from 1917 through 1997. The
first edition of Unbeatable BMW became a cult classic
among enthusiasts, but its coverage was restricted to the
years 1959-79. Now, this astounding story has been
massively expanded by the author in a hardcover format,
richly illustrated in full color. Jeremy Walton weaves
together the tale of BMW's engineering know-how,
daredevil drivers, inimitable team leaders, and the cars
they championed and drove to the winner's circle. Behind
BMW's envied reputation and the whirling-propeller badge
are such legends as the prewar BMW 328 sports cars and
the 1990s 200 m.p.h. McLaren/BMW V12s. Unbeatable BMW
also gives first-hand tales of BMW's aviation and
motorcycling deeds.
