D3 BiTurbo Chorley (Lancs) today

Spotted this in Chorley today, around 3pm listed on dot Gov as a blue 3 litre BMW diesel. Not too sure about the reflective tape and roundel 🤔

F30 D3 BiTurbo #112

That's #112 John. It's Moonstone with Ivory Lavalina II with orange piping. A friend of mine has spotted it a few times on the A56 between Sale and Alty. It's had the strange blue sticker for a while and the boot script badges are in the wrong place.

Thanks Bob.

Might have been visiting or on business as I was today. He followed me down the A6 for about 4 miles to Adlington.

Only the 3rd D3 I’ve seen in the wild around here apart from an E92 and E90 in Bolton, I need to snap those too, I think they are both Montego Blue.

That sounds a cracking spec - Moonstone is one of my absolute favourite colours.
