looks like its been either retrimmed in white and left the rest factory grey or its been dyed. there was no such thing as BMW individual back then although if you had enough money and knew the right people...........cars did come out in funky specs
Retrim
SILBERGRAU HELL.............LIGHT SILVER GREY...IF YOU LOOK AT THE LAST IMAGE SHACK PIC IT SHOWS THE SPEC SHEET, INDIVIDUAL!!! NOT A RETRIM CHAPS, SOMEONE NEEDS TO GROW A PAIR AND STOP BEING A NON BELIEVER AND AGREEING WITH THE KNOW ALLS!!!!
UNDERSTANDABLE THOUGH, AS ITS VERY VERY VERY RARE.
YES IT CLEAN, THE CAR HAS DONE 37000 MILES, I HAVE JUST HAD THE FRONTS RECONALISED, BACKS HAVE NEVER BEEN SAT IN!!

Why recolour low mileage leather ?
And why do it in a different colour

X5 V8 for thrills, CRV for chills, Range Rover P38 V8 for sooooo much aggravation...
Time to now put this to bed, Yes it is a Genuine Factory Individual ordered car, that option came in to affect @ 1988!!!! obviously a very rare option at the time.
No issue with all above comments if you don't know you don't know,

TBH If I was the OP, think i'd be a bit p1ssed by the Zones reactions here. Chap has a nice interior, rare and with proof and he's been shot down with retrims and wrong colours etc etc

That's because a lot of our members have no idea what you were buying into, back in the day,when you bought an E30, before BMW became the shadow of the company that once was, that we have today.
E30s were intended to be individual cars, finished to individual specs., if that's what the original purchaser wanted, with a massive range of optional extras that could just about double the price of the car, and if what they wanted wasn't in the options list, BMW would oblige in exchange for enough money.

Light silver grey was a leather colour available on E36's and later later E34's which had the darker silver grey plastics coupled with the light silver grey leather.
The E30 in question happens to be a late one which was made as the same time as the above was available so what's not to say it was a special order in that combo? The vin spec certainly seems to back that up.
Although it's something all of us have not seen does not mean it's not possible.

Quick one, i also put the original question on couple other forums,
The BMW car club came back with answer re. Individual options on E30,s apparently Baurs were often ordered with individual specs they posted some vins.
From what Barry said re. the E36 having the colour combo it obviously solves the mystery, the chap liked that combo and ordered it for his Touring.
So i think there is no other E30 Touring with this interior....wow, let alone with 37000 miles!!

Terry, obscure trim options on 4 pot shooting brakes was not one of my strong points at school. What I do know is that the trim looks shite. BUT you only need one person that disagrees and gets his money out
