It is a 3.2 so I think that means it has to be an M3, tax expired at end of June 2008, MOT 29 May 2008.
Technically you could fit a 3.2L to any E36 (with enough additional parts), but I'd say it's a genuine M3 Evolution convertible in Dakar yellow.If it isn't mechanically fubared then there is a a chance that the owner is away "Shooting tigers!".
As for the number plate, the truly rare M3's were the ones that never had "M3 ***" plates put on them!

Going back a page or two, here's a photo of that A35 I took circa 1996!

When I put a pic here of an abandoned Taimar it got bought and restored.

Nelson by any chance? Have seen that a few times myself and wondered what story it holds!Allegedly the car was subject to a dispute regarding the bill for smg gearbox repairs, most parts of which remain but unfortunately on the seats and interior trim which have suffered as a result. The car may look like a worthwhile project but would need a shedload £ throwing at it.......
