Ian do you have the original service book? Thats the only real surefire bit of paperwork, as 99% are registered on the V5's as just a normal 325i. Which makes proving authenticity all the more difficult now, especially if the service book is missing. Having it now adds value to the car as provenance can be prooved

The engine number stamped on the block should be the last 7 digits of your chassis. Its down by the base of the dipstick tube. 2861068 Thats if its on its original engine still - we hope so!
