allan 295 Report post Posted February 11, 2011 While looking at a number of beemers for sale have noticed that not all are the same, no suprise I know . Even within a specific model type their still seems to be a wide variation ie; 318ti motorsport some have clears others do not, different types of steering wheels, some have m badges just to give you an idea of what I'm on about. Some of this would occur when being ordered I know but not all and how does one get to know what is bull dust and what is genuine. Is their any general guide line for this or is it all up in the air and beware of any thing and everything. Thoughts anyone and everyone Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucan 196 Report post Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Pretty sure you can use the VIN or chasis number to get an original build sheet, you'll be able to tell if something has been added since factory this way. Don't pay attention to badging, any ol mofo can slap an ///M badge on a car and claim its a geniune motorsport model. EDIT: Also as Brent said owners like to personalise their cars with flasher items Edited February 11, 2011 by Blackie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
