E28 M5 Option Codes

I am currently researching the 187 GB-specification cars and the options fitted.

Is anyone able to tell me what option 780 "BMW LM-Rad / M Parallelspeiche" is and what it looks like?

I realise it is likely to be a light-alloy wheel type but how would this differ from the BBS cross-spoke design that was standard on GB cars?

Any other assistance with option codes and descriptions would be very much appreciated.

Kind regards

Mfiver

780 now means this type of wheels, You should check what meant in the times that e28 was produced.. I think ist the bbs wheel, that was standard only outside Germany...

Yes, I think this option code has been re-used to refer to the more recent parallel-spoke M-type wheels (e.g. on E38. E39). This is one of the hazards of using more recent option code lists to try and determine the build specification of cars built 20 or more years ago!

Unfortunately I don't speak German, but I think "LM rad" is literally "light metal wheel".

Always happy to be corrected on such points by others who know different!

Regards

Steve

LM, is leichtmetallfelgen: alloy wheels, you're right!
I have quite a big list of codes of the '80s, should I post them?

Batmobile,

An 80's list would be extremely helpful - to me, anyway!

I shall look forward with anticipation - i realise it might take time to transcribe unless you can scan it?

Regards

Excellent - thank you very much indeed.

When I have had time to digest this, I will add the others which I had already, based on the GB cars and my enquiries here - there may need to be some corrections to my list, perhaps.

Kind regards

Interesting

All the options on the original build sheet for UK M5 "004" match with your list with the exception that the interior options are not listed. I presume that these, along with the colour options were classed as standard selection.
