Arab Businessman Pays $3m to Purchase Number 2 Car Plate

A tradesman from the United Arab Emirate has paid $3 million to purchase a car plate with number 2.

“I’m excited. I bought the plate because number 2 is highly important for Emirati people,” the Arab businessman said.

“It is a historic and highly significant number for us because it is the symbol of the establishment of the UAE which was created on December 2,” he was quoted as saying by a Russian-language business daily published in Moscow.

The purchase was the biggest attraction at the Abu Dhabi Police’s open auction of vehicle number plates on Saturday.

The popular auction generated a revenue of more than $15m. 60 distinguished Abu Dhabi number plates were auctioned at Emirates Palace hotel.

Organised by Emirates Auction, the auction listed the numbers on the company’s website, including five double-digit plates, 15 three-digit plates, 19 four-digit and 17 five-digit plates.
