Anyone have a picture? Rogerstii has them as "Taiga PVC-frei", other sites have it as "Taiga Metallic". Perhaps based on year or car destination (country). Tx
Original Taiga Color Sticker

I think the pvc free was introduced in 1974 and that might be the reason, the same happens with Polaris and I’ve seen 74 Polaris coupes with pvc free if I remember correctly.
My car is a 1972 US
I am quite sure the stickers are original, no way to know for sure though
It was repainted before I bought it, which was 30 years ago, but they didn't paint under the hood, and looked like 20 years of dirt
the sticker says:
AuBenlackierung-BMW
polaris PVC-frei

So we have 72 US with PVC reference and a 75 euro with PVC reference. Mine is a 73 euro.
I was never this anal till I joined this forum, like who should care about a sticker................but I do dammit!.

Yes it looks correct, so pvc-frei is 72 and later. Polaris Neue was 1968 or 1969 -1971.
Mark what month was your car built? Mine is June 72 and it has its original Polaris Neu sticker on a non-repainted engine compartment
I don't know off hand, I assume that it can be determined by serial number?
Give me your VIN and I can get the month at least.
I will have to see if I have a photo of it, I don't have the car here, I will PM it to you
sorry for the misinformation! I was going by a sticker sitting on my desk that I assumed came from my car, but I found a photo of the stickers still on the car and it says:
polaris neu
polaris neu
I tried the BMW archive, they said try again at a later date
Late June 1972
