Received an interesting license plate today...

So after waiting about a month, we finally received our Texas License plates today. Since we did not do vanity plates, prior to opening the package, my wife and I were both guessing as to what letters we'd been given on our license plates.

Here is what we saw when we opened the package:



Could this be pure coincidence? Or is there a new system of assigning plates in Texas which takes into account the car model? Or was a Mini Motoring enthusiast working at the DMV who hooked us up with a CM1 (Countryman1) license plate?

Whatever the case...we're happy to have received this plate.

Awesome, even the "808" looks a bit like a car with tires on either side.
