Only 60 cars for SA, one of which was a pre-production car and I doubt was actually shipped there. This is the 50th car including the pre-production car.

Me! I bought it. It's in lovely condition.

I had an inspection 2 service from my local BMW dealership before I drove it.
The mechanic who worked on my car stated that the bodywork is as good as he's seen, as you would expect for a car that's lived in a hot dry country. He checked the chassis for cracks etc. They replaced the control unit due to an airbag light that they couldn't get out and changed the mileometer from Kilometers to miles. It's now reading 36k, ish miles.

I'm going to tuck it into bed for the winter.
