You've got the 1 plate people on here would love to own...
Bonus point if anyone can spot the roundabouts location. Clue: Surrey.

That is the worst modded E30 I've seen in a long time!
In jersey we only have a J followed by numbers. Aiming to find J32515 (or J3251 if I can clutch it from its current owners!

)
Uni is killing the project.

That guy is a douche! Give it up, or man up and get an E30 with that lovely 3.0-litre engine

in bahrain we only have numbers, but currently aiming for 90325 - (1990 325) or 325830 and make the 8 into a sly E,
saw 3251 on a mercedes but he would not sell, difficult to get good plate with only numbers!!

looks like the back road from Croydon to Purley. Can't think of the name.
Plate would look the nuts on an e30 but on that in the wrong colour looks wrong imo

Can I just say I'm amazed anyone cares where the car was photo'd. I only said it as a joke.
It's Morden Hall Park roundabout near Morden.

I think the biggest crime is that the cars in front of him appear to be using the BMW lane without regard for the fact that there is a superior being in a genuine BMW trying to use it. At least the inferior blue vehicle has stopped and waited at the roundabout for him to pass through on his far more important journey...

I didn't think any E30 *** plates had ever been issued? Are they all just 'out and about', so no chance of them being issued by the dvla as cherished numbers?
It ought to be the law that only zone members can have plates that begin E30. And they should only be fitted to e30s, I mean, come on.............

So there must be another black m3 in our neck of the woods
The clubsport is RHD and the plate looks like it has a I for Italy but aren't italian cars LHD?
When I next see this guy im going to ask if he wants to sell the plate. Any idea on price?

Sorry, the car in the OP had "E" (Spain) on the plates. But appeared to be a UK RHD car.
