2008-10-13 14:27:51 - Sealed bid auction for personalised number plates

The DVLA have introduced a new way to buy personalised registration numbers from them . Commencing October 13th 2008 it is possible to register and make sealed bid on any of the 1500 registrations available. Each number has a reserve price and will not be sold below this price. Registration and bidding is best carried out on line however for

those without internet access there is a telephone number available. After making a bid it is possible to subsequently raise or lower it or even cancel the bid altogether. Closing date for the bids is 31st October 2008 and payment will be taken immediately from your pre-registered credit card. This new form of sales supplements existing telesales, on line sales and auctions that are already in place and should prove popular with buyers although at present the private plates on offer are not the expensive high quality type that go to auction.
