welcome, any pics of the sport?
as for the original radio, they do come up for sale from time to time but can be very very expensive, there are a few aftermarket one's that look like oem but again price can be restrictive.

Sorry just remembered its missing the plate at the front. I bought the car recently so the previous owner may have it, I'll text him and see if he does. The connector I'm using cos I upgraded to a newer blaupunkt (they still use the same connector!) but the new one came with a connector that will work might just need to swap a few wires. I'll let you know if the front plate bit turns up.

Welcome, bit new myself on here but these guys are very friendly. and helpful.
I have a 1988 Pioneer radio cassette but if you really want the best radio of that era I have a complete Pioneer KEX M900 RDS with CD deck and CD 10 disc shuttle (will need a couple of amps to work), for sale. It cost more than my E30 did when I bought it.

I know I know... I thought It was older. I must say when I opened the box from the postman I was a little shocked.
