So after my first post I am called A liar?, what possible reason would I have to lie? is a M reg tourer rare?, I am new to e30's, like my post says it was bought as a winter runabout from my local scrap yard who were going to scrap it but I wanted a cheap car for the winter. Its chassis number is cl11979, from looking on realoem I worked out that it was the 75th last 318i right hand drive manual to be made ( please correct me if I am wrong)

L reg. isn't particularly uncommon, especially for a touring, (I have two, possibly three), but there's only a hand full of M regs. around.
I have another touring that wasn't registered until well over a year after it was built, but sadly, it wasn't a '93 one.
I gave up on my search for one about eighteen months ago, and stuck the Moooooore plate on my E39 towing barge. The E30s now have a trio of E3oxxplates, plus a couple of other random 'cherished' ones.
The latest 'registered' one will probably be an imported used one, where the DVLA messed up the UK plate allocation.
