Easy! Get an insurance quote for it, as the number plate is shown!

Or go here on DVLA site... Quite good fun (well, sad really) to look up all your old cars to see if they are still taxed (and alive)!

Sorry to get all serious on you, but I have just had a read through this thread.

I have no M badges by the way.

I am going to give the people that are putting M badges on a bit of slack, I think most of them are just trying to show that they have an MSport rather than pretend to be a real M model.

So what I am saying is its BMW that should have a clearer defined sub brand for their sportier looking version, but not real performance version, like Audi with S-line. They have wing badges and grill badges to show that they are the sport version without looking like S or RS copies.

Any suggestions, M-line still too close to real M?

I agree, this is exactly what I had in mind when I started this thread.

This is probably my ignorance, but does an M3 say ///M on the badge, or does it say ///M3?

If it says ///M3 then in a way, the ///M badge isn't claiming to be something it's not, assuming of course it's put on an Msport speced car!

(still not getting the badges though so don't flame me )

My M3 had an ///M3 badge on the back.

My E92 Msport has no ///M badge on the back.

Simple isn't it?
