Some quick thinking by a father and son team has put them in a great position to make a profit from their purchase of a Michael Jackson-inspired number plate.
Paul and Roger Goddard decided to buy the “MJ 09 JUN” personalised number plate after Paul had spotted a car sporting an MJ registration. They later found this registration plate after reading it as a reference to the late pop star who died in June this year.
Michael Jackson souvenir enthusiasts are expected to bid on the plate which is now on eBay with a starting price of £8,999.
These specific kinds of plates from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency can sometimes be found at bargain prices and bought for just a few hundred pounds.
If you do a search on a registration plate supplier website you may find your own way to mark your devotion to your favourite pop star, past or present.
You could find plates which refer to the birth year of the star, such as “MJ58 ACE” which can be found for under £800.
There are many different ways to show your appreciation and fandom of your favourite music or film icon. Buying a personalised number plate is certainly a great option.
