THE WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE LICENSE PLATE, Abu Dhabi UAE --- REPLICA
Image by woody1778a
Sent this back home from Dubai.This is a replica of the most expensive license plate in the world. This plate was auctioned in the United Arab Emirates in the city of Abu Dhabi in the Emirate of the same name and the capital of the UAE.
This number "1" plate was auctioned for 52,200,000 UAE Dirhams or about 14,000,000 US dollars. This replica is of the rear plate, the front plate being longer with the red portion at the left of the plate with "5" in white in it. The rest of the plate is black on white with the Country name and Emirate name in arabic followed by the single digit 1. On the front plate the "1" has a bottom piece on the number while the rear plate does not. I am not sure the meaning of the number "5" as I believe that is a vehicle class code and not part of the serial number. This plate is in the current Abu Dhabi passenger style which was first issued about 2006. Below are some links about this plate and it's significance.

NOTE: The true value is not in the license plate itself but the registration rights to it is what counts. In countries like Hong Kong, Australia, The UK, New Zealand and Thailand and other countries the registration rights to a certain number can be bought traded and sold for profit and/or investment. In the US, Delaware #6 went for about 600,000 dollars.
MUST be nice to have lots of jingle in your jeans huh!!
