Most Expensive Number Plates |

Early reports are the United Arab Emirates Registration containing just the single digit number 1 has now acheived the new world record price of around the £7,000,000 mark! Doubling the previous record set when the single digit 5 was sold (also in Abu Dhabi).

F1 - Essex's First Number.
The Registration Number F1 has now been sold by Essex Council after the previous failed attempt a couple of years back (when they sold the reverse combination of 1F).
F1 has now taken the lead as the UK's most expensive vehicle registration, selling privately for £375,000 plus VAT (£440,625).
The new owner is a delighted Afzal Kahn from Bradford, a custom car automotive designer and business tycoon, who has had the registration transfered onto his slightly cheaper Mercedes-Benz Mclaren SLR (as you do!). It was transefered off Essex Council's Volvo S80 used by the council chairman.
Mr Khan is a keen Formula 1 fan, who is looking forward to placing the registration on his soon to be launched Range Rover Cosworth.
The proceeds from the sale are going to charity. |

5 - The World's Most Expensive Number Plate.
A New World Record for a number plate has been achieved at an Abu Dhabi number plate auction.
The number plate 5 fetched Dh25.2 million (around 3.4 million ponds!), becoming the world’s most expensive number plate ever!
The highest bid was made by Talal Al Khoury, an Abu Dhabi-based businessman.
This was the first auction to be held in Abu Dhabi, so more record breaking prices could be on their way!

M1 - The World's Most Expensive Number Plate.
The Registration Number M1 fetched a new world record price of £331,500 when it was sold at Auction at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2006. It was sold to an anonymous phone bidder, believed to be a Cheshire businessman purchasing the plate as a present for his six year old son!
M1 was first issued in Cheshire in 1903, and therefore it seems the registration will remain in the North West.
M1 was previously owned by the National Trust and the proceeds from the sale will be used to help maintain the Tatton Park estate in Cheshire, a National Trust owned estate.
Although M1 was expected to fetch between £80,000 to £120,000, the actual price of £331,500 eclipses the previous world record of £285,000 paid for any registration, that was the amount paid by the Russian billionaire owner of Chelsea Football Club, Roman Abramovich, for the registration VIP1. |

The DVLA's Most Expensive Number Plate! - 51 NGH
The record for the highest price ever achieved for a vehicle registration at the DVLA auctions is now just under £254,000 inc VAT and commission (£201,000 hammer price) for the vehicle registration number 51 NGH.
This registration was sold in the April 2006 auction, knocking K1 NGS off the top spot which it had held since DEC 1993 and which sold for the hammer price of £185,000. Obviously taking inflation and the fact that number plates are more highly sort after in today's market, K1 NGS would still be the more valuable of the two!
Even the better combination of S1 NGH was sold for less. S1 NGH sold for the hammer price of £86,000 back in November 1998. |
