The 324d/ td was NEVER officially sold in a RHD market . Like the ix, a handful were undoubtably converted to RHD by bored masochists .

I'm not sure about that - they were apparently sold as RHD in ROI along with RHD E34 524tds - of which I bought an example in 2004 from AdMag. I pulled the engine from a Dolphin grey 324td in 2005, in Hughes scrapyard - it was RHD and definitely wasn't a conversion unless it had been done when new as it has the correct MPH A diesel cluster.

RealOEM says otherwise however.
