Looks like the M5 in the pic belongs to Chris Harris, with you working with him I would assume you would recognise him, but there you go.... Please correct me if I'm wrong. wink
I guess they would recognise Harris' car.

Harris' number plate ends DWP smile

gutted too, went to work Wednesday morning listening to Chris Evans talking about it, then when I arrived I saw an old Porsche 924 "Le Mans" pulling out - it seemed as if everywhere I turned I was being presented a great big reminder that I cant go this year. Have fun, hoping to be back next year.....

+1 - just saved it to my pics - awesome.

Yr doing a great job Dan - esp getting around the back woods of LM as you can get stuck coming up to concrete barriers. Ginettas Chateau looks fab - not unlike this one we stay at in the Loire Valley


Keep on blogging from a fellow Yorkshireman - half yr luck being hosted by Audi as well

Ha, now I've looked again, and I think you are right! I wonder whether this is Monkey's car, and he has some 'new' plates made up, and the garage have made a 'mistake' in the last few letters. The front part of the plate is identical. Looks like WDP... Done a check and no BMW by that reg......now I really am interested in what the reg actually is.

So please accept my apologies.

I haven't been since that glorious XJR9 won way back in 1988.

That's bad so feeling the need to go back next year. These threads only make the longing to return worse than usual.
