A number plate could be set to fetch hundreds of thousands of pounds at auction, perplexing its owner who currently has it registered to his Peugeot 407.

The plate has been owned by the same man since 1970 and has given an estimated value of £200,000 to £300,00 but experts believe it could sell for much more.

The registration is likely to attract owners the attention of Ferrari 250 GTO owners.

The current plate owner had it registered to numerous ‘ordinary’ cars including an Austin Healey ‘Frogeye’ Sprite, a Rover SD1, Peugeot 505, Honda Accord Coupe and, currently, a Peugeot 407.

The most expensive plate ever sold in the UK is the £518,480 ’25 O’, which was registered to a £10million Ferrari 250 GT SWB in 2014.

Currently, the GTO also holds the titles of the most valuable car ever sold at auction and privately.
