Cherished Number plate as an investment

Would you consider purchasing a cherished number plate for your classic car as an added investment?

The most expensive private plates that have been sold over the last 10 years have virtually all been of the cherished number plates style. Number plates such as F 1, M 1 and S 1 have made well over £300,000 and The Private Plate Company themselves sold B1 for over £200,000 back in 2006. As you can see, cherished number plates have been exceptional investments over recent years.
