My Europameister was Macau Blue, I remember talking to Munich Legends once about P/Ex it for a Sport Evo a couple of years back, I think it was Tony or Terry Halse? I spoke to who said they did the Europameister in silver too. I must admit I havn'e seen any.

Macau Blue was on some e30 325i Motorsport convertables too wern't they?

Its a real nice colour. The best polish I found was Simoniz black wax. My bonnet, wings and front bumper looked like someone aimed a pebbledasher to it. The wax hid all the chips with only the major ones showing. The car looked virtually like new after using it. It hid a multitude of sins. I must admit I am unable to find it in shops these days.

I have been led to believe the europameister was only available in Macao Blue, why would anyone want it in any other colour?

Macau blue was only available for the special edition (Evo II, Cecotto and Europameister) saloon E30 M3's and the convertibles.

It wasn't available for the 'standard' E30 M3 saloon.

I saw a Europameister in Germany last month in silver. It is ofetn refered to on the continent as a Ravaglia as he signed the plaque!

I've also been told by someone at AG that Macau was only available as listed by PJSM3 above. I've never seen a standard car anywhere in Macau myself, but wouldn't say it never happened as BMW were not the best record keepers in the history of motoring.

An friend of mine had (written off now [:sad:] a Macau Blue D reg one. I've always assumed that it was an early car. Dont see him that often nowadys, so if I remember next time I see him I'll ask.
