Liz i dont think there was a E30 BMW in the sale. It was E30 BM. It sold for Ԛ£499 or Ԛ£999. I cant remember, but i had the option to buy it when i rang the DVLA. I didn't buy it in the end cause you can only use it on a E30 really, and i was looking for a plate i could use on any car.

im on the lookout for E30 SAB (E30 SCOTT ALEXANDER BURRIS)

Ive managed to drum the BMW model codes into my friends, so they will all know what it stands for and BMW enthusiasts will know the E30 bit, even if they dont know who i am.

I enquired about E304 DAM but apparently there's no such thing as a number plate with DAM in it because it could be offensive to some people... go figure??

Parked next to each other PEN1S UP K1M

No definitely E30 BMW, it's currently on a 325i sport mate. Can't find E30 EVO anywhere but it might be hiding on retention.

"E30 SON" is available for 500 quid

I saw a black iS in Aylesbury the other day - E3 OOK or "E30 OK" - gave him a big thumbs up but he didn't see me as he was on his phone (stopped of course :P).

Is it anyone on here? If not I think I need some E30 zone flyers!

I fancy E302 HDS, "E30 ZHD'S" :D

But I thought personalised plates were just for "chavs" :?

Oh and here's the E32 site:

http://www.thee32register.co.uk

lol at "The E32 Register first started in July 2001 and four people turned up".

No wonder it doesn't seem to have been updated for a while...

where i live the number plates r just numbers, mostly all 5 digit but u can get 4, 3, 2 and 1 digit number plates, saw a brand new 318i the other day with number plate '318', how cool would it be to have an iS with 31815!

I had IIL 3251 - that was on a 325i when i bought it. Realised the value and sold the plate for Ԛ£500! result, seeing i only paid Ԛ£300 for the motor with it on.

if i would have a private plate again, i'd probably get one i could use on any vehicle

Did you sell that to a guy Lee from Cambridge area?

He put it on an E30 325i Cab.

Cool plate I think. Well worth 500 quid!

a guy who bought a set of RS wheels off me bought 'e30 bmw'. He is from the S. Bush area in london and is called Monty.
He has a 325 and is looking for an e30 m3, or so he said.

Paul, I'm sure the guy that bought E30 EVO tried to sell it on here in the for sale section for silly money, but he was quickly rumbled by myself and a couple of other peeps here who knew how much he paid for it. Lets just say, he didnt bother to come back again :wink:

If you didnt know already, DVLA is selling all their E plates with starting prices at Ԛ£599 - 1200. The obvious plates like BMW/EVO will be an auction plate. The next auction is in Feb, I have my eye on a plate.

If I dont get that plate, I will check for an E plate!

E30 BMW Went for Ԛ£2300, plus commission etc - see link - its on a 325i Sport in Black!

http://www.dvla-som.co.uk/home/en/Searc ... W&start=20

E30 EVO went for Ԛ£800 - see link

http://www.dvla-som.co.uk/home/en/Searc ... &plate=EVO

yes i did, he was nice fella. I believe the cab he put it on cost him loads due to headgasket prbs and it had over 200k on it!

I drove from SW london half way to exchange paper work.

Glad to hear he finally put it on the cab like he said.

That be me :D

I was probably trying to find out where the rest of the BM's were. I had been up to G-Tech motorsport on a dyno day with the e36coupe lot.

Sorry not to have noticed you! what were you driving?

316i, nothing special, not surprised you didn't notice. Wasn't quite as shiny at the time either! :teehee:

Although I did turn round and drive by you a second time to take another look at your plate as I didn't believe it at first :mad:

I assume you saw me around 4:00pm ish. We had all left G-Tech together to go find something to eat before driving home. Unfortunately I managed to follow a e36 that wasn't in our group... probably thought I was stalking him! Caught up with some of the others eventually :D

Should have stopped for a natter!
