Yes, correct body style bonnet... good find.
Yes the second and third batches are the ones that are not very sought after, lets call them the non ice white ones, however that's not to say its not a good find and not worth restoring. Its still a good find and well worth keeping and restoring, especially since the one you found seems to be in overall good condition and complete.
The only reason the first ones are scarcer is because they contained all the bits to make it the 'M'. The lighweight parts, ect and were all hand built.
Its sits in the same class and rarity as the 535!. Keep her standard and original and clean her up nice, she will be well worth the time and money.
I have found a number of them and only 1 of them I was willing to offer the owner money. His car is the same colour but with the black interior and striped seats in the motorsport colours.Car was all original and clean, rust free and straight without much to do. He wasn't willing to sell at the time but maybe I will still get her one day.
Do send some pics and a pic of the VIN plate to the owner of the www.e12.de website Ulli, he loves updating his site with 530's found.
