(She is sweet, no? Of course this news would have never made the scoop if I thought I could afford to bid on it. hehe)
Timo from the C1 Owner’s Club knows that I’m hot for the big, goofy, roofed oddity from BMW. This is as safe as 2-wheels gets right here, PLUS it looks like a police scooter or an early concept for a Troncycle. Anyway, here’s what Tim said:
There is a c1 for sale in the US. It looks like a very nice one too. All of the options, except maybe the sunroof. It is a 125, but they are very strong 125 engines. I think 13 horsepower.Anyway, just thought I’d let you know.
And we appreciate you for it. Please keep me posted in the future, just in case. ;)
Oh, and… Sunroof? I’m holding off for that. Click on the title link if you wanna see the listing and tons more pictures. If you win, can I take her for a spin?
***UPDATE***
Right now it’s up to $2800 with a $500 deposit.

I have purchased a bmw c1 scooter. I need assistance to have it delivered from London to Texas. I aslo need assistance to properly register the scooter in Texas as well. I am aware that NHTSA has approved them for import and I have been surfing your site for years.
Do you know someone who can help? Or where I should go to find and contract for this kind of help in the U.S.?
