Yep, but that is not what I'm after. There were 2 main models. Hint: Related to the windows !

That's not really what I was looking for, but I think you deserve a point. I was looking for "Bubble Window", the other model is "Slide Window".

Bubble window was earlier, so you can get away by saying standard.

Congratulations!

I don't think "Bubble Window" and "Slide Window" are official BMW (or ISO) model names.  They sound more like enthusiast's descriptions like "Bugeye" Sprite, "Split rear window" VW Beetle, "Split Screen" and "Balcony Screen" VW Kombis, "High Light" and "Low Light" Morris Minors etc.

"Standard" was the official model name for the first version you called "bubble window", "Export" was the one for the slide window version.
