SIR E30 68 Report post Posted September 14, 2008 (edited) Hey Everyone Is there any way to find out how many of cars of each year/model were made? Or any way to find out how many were brought into New Zealand. I have a 1988 E30 325i Touring (genuine manual).. It came in from the UK in 1994. I want to know how many are in New Zealand and how many were made? Basically I want to know is my car as uncommon(sp) as people say.. Thanks people!

One of my E30 manuals.I'll owe you something if you find out how many of mine were made Would be good if you could find out how many in total from different countries.. SA UK and Germany (or wherever the hell they were actually made!). Do you know how to find out how many actually came to NZ? Cheers mate!
