We often hear that 'hobby is priceless', but one of Dubai's richest men proved this adage true when he bought a rare number plate for a car worth 55 million dirhams (US$1.5 million) at an auction. It has been proved.
According to the report of the global broadcasting organization 'Bloomberg', during the auction held for charity (charity), the LLC company of Dubai held the auction of the rare car number plate 'P7' based on two letters and it was 5 crore 50. The auction was held in lakhs of dirhams.
According to the company, this number plate has a '7' written at the distance of the letter 'P', which makes it a rare number plate.
According to the report, the bidding for the auction of the rare number plate was initiated by the Ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, and will be donated to the 'World Food Aid' campaign.
It should be noted that in Dubai there is a passion for buying valuable and rare number plates of cars at high prices, where rich people flaunt their status and wealth under the pretext of charity.
This recent number plate auction has broken the record of Dubai's richest man, Saeed Abdul Ghafoor Khoury, who spent AED 52.2 million for the rare number plate '1' in 2008.
However, the name of the person who won the recent auction was not disclosed.
It may be noted that prices of rare and unique number plates have been the center of attention outside the Middle East as well, where a person bought an 'R' number plate for Rs 32 million at an auction in Hong Kong.
Earlier, a businessman, Balvinder Singh Sahni, had bought a 'D' number plate in 2016 at a cost of 33 million dirhams.
Yesterday, he said in an interview that "Dubai is a city of gold, it is a city of big people, safe people, good people, so everyone wants to show their status."
Balwinder Singh Sahni said that he still remembers when he visited the luxury hotel Burj Al Arab in Dubai in 2006, he was stopped because his car had more than one number plate and was told He knew that he had to have a two-letter number plate to enter a hotel, so it became his dream to have a single-letter number plate from then on.
He had said that when he went to an auction event organized for charity, he bought a number plate with the letters 'D5' and since the number 9 was his favorite, he added the English letters 'D' and numbers. 5 are selected from the combination of which makes 9 numbers.
However, Guinness World Records did not immediately comment on the matter.
