Personalised registration plates to go on sale
Going, going, gone! To the proudest fish and chip shop owner in England goes a sought after personalised registration plate, bearing the letters CH11 PPY.
Bids starting at £400 for the YOU 1OST “fun plate”. Any takers? Perhaps the boy racer in the front row?
These are the kinds of questions that may be posed during the DVLA Personalised Registrations sale, at the Stratford Manor Hotel on February 1st.
It is expected that a large number of motorists will be in attendance, some with the hope of securing a pair of HI5 MUM and HI5 DAD plates.
A spokesperson for the DVLA said, “We always manage to come up with an incredible array of personalised registrations to suit all tastes and with reserves starting from as little as £250 this auction is no exception.”
This may seem like a great extravagance, until you hear the Chelsea Chairman Roman Abramovich paid £285, 000 for his VIP plate. He obviously wanted to remind the world of his particularly high status.
Here at duck2water we have been wondering how much would be willing to bid for the IN5 URED plate…
