Hi all need some help ive jus bought a nice 325i on a 89 G plate for a very good price but the car did not have a vin plate as the car had been in a front ender bk in 2000. ive taken the car to bmw with my v5 to have this made up and they've told me the v5 has not got the towing weight's on it and without this they cant make a new plate!
Was hoping someone would have this, The info i need is:

Total Permissible Weight?

Total Permissible towing weight?

Permissible front axle weight?

Permissible rear axle weight?

any help on this would be greatly appreiciated. :thumb: [/b]

It is in the handbook if you have it to hand, if not, i will try to dig it out when my 3 year old finally goes to bed!
