Ooh, can't make it out from the bad light but that almost looks Laguna Seca Blue. Shame the light wasn't better to see it
Correct sir, LSB.
BTW, OP, cheers for posting my reg, just managed to clear my name after the last scum bag ran a red light in London with my plates.
I am finding this site a little difficult to navigate, where are the specific model related technical threads? I spend most of my time on bimmerforums.com.?
Hello anyway, cheers gix.

Thanks for confirming, it's a stunning colour!
I'll edit the picture tomorrow and obscure your plate
I think someone answered already, but head to the forum menu option and click on that. Then scroll down, and you should find them! If you get to the footer, you've gone too far

LSB is a difficult colour to photograph, it gets lighter/darker depending on the light. That sounds obvious, but you know what I mean.
Can't have too many old beemers.
Now that's a gorgeous coupe
I had the same problem with an old Ford Escort years back. Got a knock on the door one evening from the local constabulary. Someone was using my reg number and driving off from petrol stations in Sheffield without paying. Gits.
And now he's just sold a Dakar ///M
. Seriously though, I've come across this a few times in the past. This is one of the reasons that you have to show proof of identity and residence when buying number plates. The seller should also keep a log of such sales too.
Tony.
Except of course when you can order "show plates" with anything on them from the Internet with no proof of identity whatsoeverAnd now he's just sold a Dakar ///M
Tony.
And that's just one thing which makes a mockery of it Gaz, what do you do with the old plates? Bin them, and then they end up God knows where, you not even required to destroy the old plates. Ain't the Internet wonderful?Except of course when you can order "show plates" with anything on them from the Internet with no proof of identity whatsoever
