Following on from my post a few pages back these are the results of the Bonhams auction. All prices include premium:

14 JP £12,075

72 K £40,825

1 HOT £65,550

W 18 £46,000

ROS 1 £74,750

The price wasn't listed for PFC 37, 1 UFC and S 23. So I presume these remain unsold.

Thanks for updating!

Given these include the premium these prices are far lower than I would have expected. Market cooling?

The Everything Bubble seems well on the way to deflating/popping... lol

Not on the single single site, I saw this pic on another site this week, it shows up on the insurance database but currently not on the DVLA checkers so might be fake, I'm not sure

Before I place a plate on the site I run various checks and as you've already indicated it only appears on the insurance database.

Spotted in several locations, Keighley being one of them, this may be an indication of how genuine it is

N1 spotted today

If I was offered N1 or 1N I would definitely choose N1 for the historical aspect. Just before I changed my mind at the last minute so I could announce I was IN at work or home!

I'm not sure what the story is behind 1N. It was never sold at a DVLA auction so it must be an original issue at some point. However, all the other single singles 2N to 9N were sold at auction!

Diplomatic plate maybe.

Good point. Have to admit I missed that one. 2 P is similar, not an auction plate but the rest were. It was a special DVLA issue that was subsequently sold on.

I'll do some digging on 1 N but it doesn't help it was recently sold after long term ownership

Any luck finding out any history? I'm really intrigued with this one.

What’s with these angular shaped plate??

They look daft unless the body is that shape

Are they legal?

Yes, legal as long as 11mm all round the digits, there are no size/shape limits.

I don’t like them, they’re trying too hard. Plain full size plate IMO looks better

It seems every Urus has one of those multi-sided angular plates. I agree, they’re a bit try hard; it’s not as if the car isn’t angular enough already.

I don’t mind oversized plates designed to fit particular apertures, but cut down plates always look a bit silly to me.

+1 If you’re going to spend a lot of money having a few bits cut off, try for a decent shape at least!

[Hatson]

I got one made like this but I’m waiting until I can get it much bigger!

This popped up yesterday during a search for something else - 'MC 11' not found on the DVLA site so probably scrapped or exported...?

Wouldn’t be cricket if that has been scrapped!
