FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release)Apr 11, 2008 – Cherished number plate specialists Cape Plates (http://www.capeplates.co.uk) have announced an exciting new addition to their sales list . The rare combination AO 1 is over 100 years old and is still assigned to the original 1903 Peugeot car (held by the same family for the past 105 years).  It is the first time this combination has been on the market.

Bob O’Donnell, Director at Cape Plates said;

“I can’t tell you how excited I am about this.  We thought we’d died and gone to number plate heaven when the request came through.  Seriously though, this combination was issued the same year as A1 which was the first plate ever issued – it’s a real slice of motoring history.”

The AO 1 combination, originally issued by Cumberland County Council is on the market for £96,000 – which some would consider a snip as two letter 1 number combinations often sell for £250,000 and over.

Bob added:

“We expect a lot of interest in this number as the price is extremely competitive for this type of combination. I don’t envisage this plate being on the market for long.”

So, for those of you with £112,906.95 spare (the price including VAT and delivery) you can view the historical number plate at https://www.capeplates.co.uk/purchase/super/?type=super&id=3377340. However, you’d better be quick because interest is already high.

Roger Philpot, Head of Marketing at Cape Plates commented:

“Although paying over £100,000 for a number plate may seem like a lot of money - number plates like this actually prove an excellent investment and increase in value with age.”

For more information about this number plate or to search over 27,000,000 available combinations, visit Cape Plates at http://www.capeplates.co.uk.
