A fucking massive BMW i7 at the aerodrome today. It stuck out of the parking space by a good couple of feet. Just HUGE.

Number plate LUC 1D.

Probably a company car I guess - it's the cheapest way to own one. The guy who got out of it was pretty young.

On a brand new 992.2 Carrera T after the sheet had been pulled off:

I admired the car and asked the owner if he likes cats. He doesn’t. So I think I just ruined his new car moment by basically telling him his plate’s shit 😄

They are literally giving them away at the moment, along with the 750e PHEV. A few on PH lease deals circa £2k down and £500pm for 2 years.

BO07 TTY. I didn't see the (hopefully female) driver to know if suitable.

This one I think* qualifies under "fortuitously apt original random reg allocation"; lwb Caravelle with BG61 UNN.


* Possibly swayed by seeing some indecipherable ones earlier, so twisted and distorted you wonder if it's even possible to have that collection of letters and numbers. BB16 UNN would have been better on a later one.
