    It's even parks in that distinctive "take nearly two spaces" way I find a lot of modern beemers do.

    I'm sure its a DS @Silvera is talking about. I've seen pics of a HIC reg estate in the past but can't recall the plate off the top of my head

    I took the pic and posted it here a couple of years ago and on reflection it was a DS.

    My uncle in Meath had one of those in the early 80s. They had 8 kids and used to cart them and my cousins around in it during the holidays. Pretty sure there was no ISOFIX :D

    An absolute legend the DS.

    From winning the Monte Carlo Rally to use as a Presidential limo, ambulance, police car, camera car. They were a real milestone in motoring history.

    Some were built in Slough in the UK.

    Yes, that's the one I spotted!

    Why would it need a second number plate on the bumper?

    So you can drive with the tailgate open (big items sticking out) and still display your rear reg plate. Note how the reg plate lights are at 45 degrees, so both plates are illuminated:

    Early Range Rover had a similar idea, except it was on a hinge and you had to flip it down manually.
