Went to a thing with work and we pulled up behind another Alpina. Rare enough. But check out the number plates!!

That's a great spot.

If you fancy going for a hattrick, this one has been spotted a couple of times in Faversham area.

That's pretty crazy!

I used to own an old Subaru Legacy with the plate K69 HJS. Years after I sold it, I saw a guy parking his car with the reg K70 HJS. It's a bit sad, but I had to go and say hello. It was a private plate bought by his kids for his 70th with his initials on.
