The first online auction for fancy vehicle numbers launched recently by the Traffic Department has concluded fetching a total revenue of more than QR421mn for 19 such numbers.
The highest bid for a number amounted to QR200.43mn for "336633". The second highest price was QR200.40 for “333355”. This was followed by QR12.31mn for “337337”.
The winning bidders should go to the General Directorate of the Traffic Department within 24 hours of the end of the auction to sign the purchase contracts. Failing to do so would make them lose their claim for the designated number and it also entails the loss of the security deposit of QR20,000.
Local Arabic daily Arrayah reported yesterday that the Traffic Department intends to offer around 10,000 fancy numbers at such auctions, in batches.
