guide saying which diff comes with which model?

[sheebie]

Does anyone know of a guide anywhere to say which diff is likely to come with each model car?
I know how to check, there is a touring on ebay breaking and the seller says he doesnt know how to check despite me explaining it to him. I would go down and check myself but its too far away. So wondering what it came with out the factory?

What it came with from the factory and what it has now twenty + years later are two different things !

Assuming it is a 325 it will have had a 3.91. It may even have HAD a LSD

I understand that it may have been changed but on this car it ia unlikely as its only
Had 4 owners so just wanted a guide. Its a 325 touring so will most likely be a 3:91 unless its been changed.

I think what Pete might of been hinting at is that although it came with an LSD out of the factory, there is every possibility that it doesn't work as such any more.
