| Number Plate Sold For More Than 20000000 Yes its true...... In UK, the number plate was recently sold for £254,000, which equates to more than TWO CRORE RUPEES and was a record in UK. And guess registration was........ "51NGH" !!!! and "MR 51NGH" sold for £101,000!! http://www.channel4.com/4car/news/ne...41&ref=archive http://www.regtransfers.co.uk/pr/new..._a_mr51ngh.asp http://www.selectnumberplates.co.uk/...9-05-2006.html Redcandle |

| Senior - BHPian  | We always used to get VIP numbers for free due to some contacts in the RTO department but 3 years back the Govt. changed rules and now charges a fixed fee for these numbers. Before that we've had the following numbers: 4411 1234 (twice) 6400 4321 5050 0010 After that just have had the number for my current car & paid 10k as fees to the govt for it 0010 is the number (again).

| BHPian  | In Trivandrum, AK 47, went for aution and was sold for some whooping amount. I am not sure how much it exactly went for. Now in Kerala, since every municipality or so has an RTO office...so now getting fancy numbers is much more easier than before. Earlier it was KL01 to KL14....now after the new rules it has gone up to KL50s or 60s. Last edited by basilmabraham : 16th November 2006 at 07:42. |
