DVLA sealed bids auction – February 2009

DVLA sealed bids auction -  February 2009

9th feb – 27th Feb 2009 – 1074 number plates

For the second time in 6 months the DVLA have turned to a sealed bids auction with some 1000+ number plates on offer.

Having examined the lots it has to be said it’s a pretty unexciting line up of registration numbers on offer.

Of a handful of number plates which caught the eye of the Smashing Plates team :

JAS131R (JASBIR) & WAN13D (WANTED)


It has to be said some of the more exciting and valuable combinations of recent DVLA auctions are noticeably not present.

With the mediocre success of the last DVLA sealed bids auction we feel they should stick to the regular format.
