Anyone know what goodies I should find on a L reg 316i Touring Lux, that I wouldn't find on a non lux version of the same?

body coloured bumpers and mirrors
front fogs
6 button OBC
electric windows
rear headrests
se steering wheel
black window beading (not chrome)
a manual sunroof

I didn't think the Lux models came with RHR or the 6 button OBC as standard????

15" bbs alloys

Think it was just the above, will find out for deffo....have the info upstairs somewhere!

Mine has it and it appears it was sold like this?
I have the original bill of sale - oooh get me! lol

also it came supplied with 14"bbs and a boot lid spoiler forgot about those

thanks for the info so far. RAC website gives the build date as 31/12/94.
When did they stop making these things?

About 02/1994

Didn't think of using the ETK or that site!
Do I take it then, that the RAC site doesn't know what its talking about?

RAC site put the 31/12 of said year for the cars they dont know much about!

[Zayyan]

Lux saloons came with 14" alloys (bottletops or BBS), while Lux convertibles (and I think Tourings) came with 15" BBS.

Lux saloons have RHR as standard, cabs don't - Tourings, again, maybe.

Sorry I can't be of more help

[Zayyan]

Oh and the RAC site lists the build date as 31st December if it doesn't know the date and just the year.

God Zayyan , your always on here late . Are you nocturnal or on nights at work like me?

[Zayyan]

I'm not entirely sure.

Tonight I've just got in from a night out, some nights I have nothing to do the next day and so stay up late, and some I'm up late typing for my cruel employer in exchange for pennies!

[topspark]

typing what??

[Zayyan]

Medical reports and letters, very boring stuff!

Contributes a good chunk towards the car addiction though so I can't complain

What do you do when working nights then?

[topspark]

Electrical support for papermill , procter and gamble in trafford park , manchester. We make tissue , Bounty kitchen and charmin toilet . Good job but shifts are shite!

Mine doesn't have the OBC or RHRs, but it does have the 15" BBS and leccy front windows only.

try the DVLA website...

Click on Vehicle enquiry, gives some info that the RAC site doesn't.

Done! Comes up as 01/02/94 - that makes a bit more sense.
One of the last E30s made then.
