Slightly off topic but I’ve bought an Audi S4 with a S4 plate on it. I don’t want it on the car so do I just get a new number from the DVLA and the current plate goes on a retention that I can attempt to sell? If its even worth anything.

Yep. It'll cost you £80.00 at DVLA.

Apparently that plate's on a blue BMW M3 confused
You wanted to check if it was C180, didn't you?

Haha, no I knew it was real. I looked it up to see how many miles it had on it. I figured it had only a couple of thousand miles smile

It's a shame it's an old picture, it's good to see that it's currently on an M3.

I believe BMW UK wanted to buy it but he wouldn't sell....!
Still on a beemer - and an old one, 1989, not sue of the model (doesnt give that on the DVLA website) but it is a 3.5!

How comes M5 was never issued.
It was, in 1903 by Cheshire, and as noted above now SORN.

And it's been parked for 8+ years , is the plate stuck on a scrap car now ?

'Loos For Dos' is a local portable toilet hirer I see around quite a bit. They have a fleet of flatbeds and tow vehicles and this one, 'LO05 DOS', fits them nicely. They also have some others in that or a similar range, as well as 'TO11 ETZ'.

Just watched the new SupercarDriver YouTube video on a BMW850 that was for sale at the same dealer (Car Iconics) they recently drove a Lotus Carlton from - included the number plate BMW 850 - height of coolness! Found a cached web page but seems to have gone from their website

8 GM on a 220d Active Tourer... Stuck behind it for a good 15 miles through the Lake District in traffic earlier today...

A plethora of single digit/three letter combinations of McLarens and Ferrari’s spotted too, can’t remember them all and no photos unfortunately.
