Plate can be held on retention for 12 months and will take a few weeks to transfer over

X3 BMW would be an expensive plate, mine has my name (luckily its a short name so no dodgy extra dots or backwards letters/numbers)

You don't fancy driving it round with an '11 plate for the first year or first 6 months? I think I would but then I don't have a private plate, or a short enough name!

Reminds me of Sepang Bronze. Looks hot!

It's a great color. Not the most common so it'll stand out. Classy and sporty.

It's also one of those colors that really shows of the character lines. Usually it's the lighter colors that do a good job of this (alpine white, mineral silver). This is a darker one that does it. Considering how good the body language is on the X3, a color that shows off is definitely a plus.
