How Many autos?
Discussion
Someone asked me the question elsewhere how many automatic wedges were made, I imagine most of the US market ones were autos and I have seen 2 in the uk, the FHC at douglas valley and the DHC I have just bought and I know Mr Tank has an auto dhc but how many others are there out there?
I have a white series 1 350i auto, it was a special order with white leather for an arab gentleman. It has power steering and twin fans as standard and had only 10,000 miles on the clock when I bought it 8 years ago.
There was a blue 350i that had been converted from a manual, I believe that some of the guys on here helped to convert it. I havent heard anything about that for years though and it was not in great order at least 8 years ago.
There is also a left hand drive 450SE in juniper green. It was for sale last year and may have been exported again.

That 450 auto was a special order. A previous owner was also a UK porn star.
I have pictures
I know one of the previous owners of the green one, and I'm sure he wouldn't describe himself as a porn star! It was one of a pair (the other one red) built for an owner in the Middle East. IIRC the gearbox alone was about £10K - it was a US 4 speed auto of some sort. The red one seems to have vanished.I have pictures
