Almost $900,000 for the “F1″ license plate
Yup, that’s how much Afzal Kahn, head of the Kahn Design and Project Kahn,
paid for the “F1″ license plate.
More exactly, $870,000 ($740,000 plus taxes).
Mr Kahn bought the license plate to put it on his custom made McLaren Mercedes SLR,
so actually his plate worths more than his car.
The “F1″ plate was registered in the UK long time ago, in 1904,
back when it was just a license plate and F1 didn’t mean anything.
And it looks like Bernie Ecclestone and Eddie Irvine tried to buy the plate in 2005,
but wouldn’t pay the requested price.
The previous most expensive plate was the “M1″
sold in 2006 for $650,000,
but the new record could be broken soon,
when the “A1″, UK’s oldest registered license plate, will go on sale.
