About Ivo

A BMW E28 story that started in 1997

Ivo’s first BMW was an E28, bought in 1997. It became a lasting interest in the cars, their parts and their electronics. Road trips through Europe, journeys across the United States and the Dakar Challenge in southern Africa are part of that history.

That enthusiasm developed into BMW E28 Specialist, founded in 2011. Years of working with the cars and their components built practical knowledge and contacts among owners and specialists internationally.

A clear focus today

From Peins, the business focuses on new and used parts, instrument cluster and SI board repairs, auction representation and selected consignment. The parts shop remains here. Panel repairs have their dedicated home at BMWCCR. Auction and consignment work is presented through The Autobahn Alliance, where Ivo works with Eric Bunte.

Electronics and practical knowledge

A background in electronics is an important part of Ivo’s work, from understanding instrument functions to developing SI board solutions. The aim is to establish what a panel needs and agree the appropriate work before proceeding.
