He claims 19000 original miles and the ODO shows clearly in the picture 21xxx. Hard to tell, but the paint looks toasted in the pics as well.

Could well be 121,XXX or 221,XXX. Why not 321,XXX miles?

After reaching 99,999 miles, the odometer has done a full turn.

I would trade my E30 for a 2002 0r 1600 sooo fast..
Umm smog exempt..

original my ass. the cluster ain't even from the correct year.

original my ass. the cluster ain't even from the correct year.

Didn't 1969-1971 02s (serie 1) have the black cluster with slilver rings while the second serie had no silver ring, and in 1974 (serie 3) it was real plastic wood?

Below is 1972-1973 black cluster without the silver ring.

The ring around the speedo should be black no?

That is from an earlier car possibly a 1600 I bet.

[Massive Lee]

That car is a first serie 2002 (1968-1971) and those had the black cluster with silver rings. Then fully black from 1972 to 1973, and fake wood in 1974 until the end of the production in 1977 with the econo 1502 still in production while the e21 had already started selling.

On of the aspect that is specific to the first serie is the absence of plastic side moldings. This particular attention was retained again in 1976-1977 with the econo 1502 to save on production.

[parkerbink]

I had a 71, it had fully black cluster. I don't know the production date so it could have been a late car that got the 72 cluster.

How can you be sure your 71 had the original cluster? Most likely a part swap from a later car. Check in the owner manual for pictures of the proper cluster. It should have silver rings.

Is there anything you won't argue?

It looks like you were wrong about the cluster and don't appreciate being told so. I gave you the proof, period. Are you always paranoïd like that?

[parkerbink]

You proved nothing. You do not know what a 71 2002 I had in 1980 had or if the car even existed. This is an argument you cannot win as you literally do not know shi*.

Now run off and sell some over priced bbk to an unsuspecting kid.

EDIT

And thanks for proving my point that you will literally argue about ANYTHING.

[Turf1600]

Lee is right, though. Just sayin.

[parkerbink]

Lee is right that MY 71 2002 had chrome rings?

How do you know?

I never said it was original, I never said anything regarding the year/cluster protocol. He is arguing MY car had the silver rings.

I am positive it did not, I am also positive it was the way the car was sold because I bought it from a friend of my Father that bought it new and he did not change anything.

Just sayin.

[Massive Lee]

The argument about the proper cluster started here after somebody claimed the cluster was not the right one.

Which was argumented here.

Then our resident paranoïd starts all sort of argumentation about what he didn't really mean... Pfff...

How course I am right about the cluster.
I have had 02s for 25 years. And my current one is a 1969. ;-)
