BMW 1M sold for £6700

Jezzer · 11-30-2011, 01:10 PM

Well the number plate BMW 1M in the UK sold at auction today for £6700 + 8% commission + 20% tax so around £8600. Anyone on here buy it?

Haha lol. Not me.

I'd have to sell a kidney first, rather spend it on Akrapovic and Evolve! Oh and some nice winter wheels and tyres for that price.

Must admit, if I did have the money I probably would not have hesitated. I could see a low mileage 1M in VO with that plate costing a lot of money in a few years. Nice investment.

Not going to happen for me as I am piling on the miles.

About $13,500.

Over there you can't order custom vanity plates like you can in pretty much every state over here in the US.

Jezzer · 11-30-2011, 02:21 PM

I wonder if BMW UK bought it?

BradleyA · 11-30-2011, 03:44 PM

I was bidding but gave up as £6k+ is silly.

Tony135 · 11-30-2011, 05:07 PM

That's a lot of dough for a plate. Our custom plates in Cali are like $50 a year or something.

ah, that's nothing.

If I could part with 15k on a rego plate then I somehow doubt I would be behind the wheel of a 1M.............I hope he/she is throwing in some free mats with that lol
