Best method to discover how many e21 still alive?

[Amur73]

Hey all,
I was thinking about something: what would be the best method of finding out how many of the e21s are still alive, registered or on the roads. Of course every country has got different rules in regards to keeping car registered, insured etc but maybe there is a way of getting access to this information somehow?
Any thoughts?

in Italy we go to the automobile register with the last known plate

How would this help to assess how many e21 are in Italy?

you can only look for the specimens of which you have the license plate, I don't think a global search is possible

Unfortunately I don't have any Italian license plate today so I won't be able to learn anything.

That's interesting, but obviously it will overlap with e30, e36 etc, right?

indicate how many have been registered or how many are still alive?

I guess this is the challenge. To define worldwide the meaning of this. I think the best it would be to say active, permitted to legally drive on the public road.
