Thanks. I'm not sure anyone is really interested in this but here goes:

Here in the UK the first two numbers in the license plate are the year/period of registration. There is one in March and September each year. The March period is simply the year, so currently '10' with the Sept period being the year plus fifty, so due to be '60'. If I take delivery in the next two weeks it will be a '10' plate, therefore from September it will immediately 'look' 6 months old. It's not a major problem, but I'd prefer to have the Sept plates for the sake of waiting a couple of weeks.

Thats the first 35is with the 296 wheels I have seen, very classy!

Thanks. I thought the 296 wheels would be a bit more subtle on an otherwise very unsubtle car, especially being white. Really like your colour combo but I felt it was just too dark for the usually rainy England.
