Hello,

I have just had the original spec sheet for my 325 sport printed at a dealership and have noticed a mention of a Sequential Manual Transmission (SMG) on the optional equipment list.

Has anyone ever seen this before or know any details on it? Cant seem to find much on Google about an SMG gearbox in an E30.

Thanks in advance

E30 never came with and SMG, but the 0206 code is correct for the E36 SMG.

0206 was used for couple of other things including Beige leather. What colour are your seats?

My guess is computer glitch. :mad:

They are grey with the chequered pattern in the centre, wonder what else it could be ?
