Following on from another thread it got me thinking.

Could it be mine(soon to be Wullies),VulkanGrau with apparently 50 produced

lol yeah and it will be "poo brown" because nobody wanted it. Im sure there are some horrible sick coloured, off yellow, eggshell, horrible light beige coloured e30s around. (i don't think thats the BMW name though).

As the above clearly proves rare doesn't necessarily equate to desirable ! quite the opposite in fact !
