Unless you ask specifically at an auto factors, you're unlikely to be
told the maker for spares.
I still maintain that the 'easiest' way to get genuine parts is to buy
from a BMW dealer

Ah. sorry about that. I normally pick up on that sort of thing from the
conversation. You know, those funny language terms you "blokes" use...
;-)

I guess it sucks to be you guys? Having to pay stealer rates for car
parts on a 1987 would just about do me in...

You don't have to. There are at least two decent specialists that Mike
mentioned and things like cambelts easily sourced from near any motor
factor or even chain store. My brother runs an E28 and I don't think he
knows where his dealer is. Scrap yards, yes. ;-)
