There were around 4200 Sports sold in the UK. Not sure how many are left though. Plenty will have been stuffed or broken for spares now.

The number of 318iS' sold new was supposed to be around 1100. Not sure on number of 325iSports but i bet if you assume about 50-60% have survived then your getting close to the numbers left today.
