It is, isn’t it? The M3, excellent, we mean. BMW has been honing its 3-Series road rocket ever since the first cars were homologated for showrooms in 1986. Each new version has simply got better - quite an achievement when you consider how good the original was. 

This plate, then, is perfect for marking that simple fact. Particularly so if you happen to have a very good example of these cars and fancy this plate as the icing on a concours-winning car. It is available on retention and can be fitted to any car built after August 1994.
