Entries for 'Registry'

The Registry Volunteer Team is pleased to announce that we have reached two milestones during the past month, namely passing the 6000 archived cars mark in November and the 20% milestone of cataloging the 30,621 8er's produced by BMW AG earlier this month.

Effective immediately Brian Eales will become the new USA E31 Registry Agent.  Mr. Eales is assuming the USA responsibility from Jud Spencer, who is retiring after 8 years of service to the global BMW 8 Series community.

Mr. Eales is an active Kansas member of the 8 series scene since purchasing his BMW 840CiA 06/2001 and the overall BMW community since the late 1990’s.  His positive energy for the E31 led to his current duties as a co-moderator for the E31 Forum at Bimmerforums.net. Mr. Eales commands well known 8er knowledge and ongoing outreach to existing and potential 8er owners.

The listing of Option Codes specific to the 8 Series continues to be refined and validated.  There were at least 175 different option codes available for the E31 during its 10 year production run.
