Sometimes the C124PPY is legal and very subtle.

I didn't look it up, it was the "M4 Obviously" on an M5 that caught my attention and was what I felt was a bit crap, it definitely wasn't yellow though.

There's a gypo-looking obese oaf who drives around Chelmsford in a grey Q7 with the reg 'XL 58TAN' but said plate doesn't come up on any DVLA checks or car check apps. Seems weird. And the plate is tined dark grey, it's impossible to read unless you're probably less than 20ft from it.

Looks like the M5 was either previously wrapped yellow, then returned to the original silver colour in the pic, or alternatively was originally yellow and is now wrapped silver - but in either case probably not updated the change on the V5.

This looks to be BMW Moonstone Metallic. I used to own an E92 325d Coupe in the same colour which was also registered with the DVLA as yellow. In certain lights it did have a very obvious yellow tinge but I would have definitely described it as a silver colour overall. It’s unlikely this M5 has any dubious wrapping history, it’s probably just registered as yellow from new, perhaps oddly by BMW?

It is a lovely colour, however. Sometimes looking silver, sometimes yellow and at times even blue, depending on the light that’s hitting it.

Hmmm.

M21OFF is on a Blue 3.0 BMW that's taxed & MOT'd

M27OFF is on a White 3.0 BMW that's tax & MOT expired

Looking at the plate, I wasn't sure if it was 'M21' or 'M27'

Yes... M27 OFF is on a White BMW M240I convertible which is not Taxed or MOTd... So they've spent the money making it look like a wannabe M2 but havn't spent the money on the Tax or MOT.....hehe

It’s definitely a 7 hence the abysmal attempt to make it look like a 1. I’m assuming this is an M235/40i anyway.

M21 OFF is definitely on an M2.
