Saw a 12 plated BMW s1000rr on friday (2nd). Weird thing was it had straight bars, rather than clip ons. Must had been done in the dealership as the bike could have only been 30 hours old.

I'm guessing the guy was a bit older and maybe had a back issue so couldn't do clip ons (he had 'RON' stitched on the back of his leathers).

Saw a 12 plate Evoque the other day, does that count? I remember saying 'ooh a 12 plate' in my helmet and then realised they are bloody ugly cars.

Ah yes, the thrill of seeing vehicles I may buy in 2022 once other people have paid off the depreciation for me Laughing

I keep thinking of changing. But whilst interest rates are so low, it makes more sense to pay off my mortgage. Plus the car is nearly 10 years old now and won't last for ever.

Bugger. I really like the new shape ER6n in Yellow/Black. I would replace my ER6 for another one. But my Z750, not so sure, perhaps a Street Tripple.

I've been in one for a drive, a pimped sorta one off. Don't get me wrong, great cars, and from angles they are excellent, but being branded a range rover is just stupid. It's a freelander at best Razz

Drake, rather missing the point of a new car there.

I ordered my new van which will be a 12 plate, and I have worked on quite a few 12 plate cars.

Not seen any new bikes but I can't say I've been looking, nor do I offen see the back of a bike.

I've not seen any '12 plates yet - then again, i'm looking AT THE ROAD AHEAD when I am riding Wink Laughing

Someone bought one of the new VFRs at the local Honda dealer, so i'm sure i'll see him around sometime.
