Jumped onto VicRoads website and searched for "1" with an "Unable to provide Portal response" message...
searched "2" and it's on a 2012 BMW wagon... wonder if it's worth more than $800,000 as I'm assuming it's also a heritage number plate.??

Yes, I dont get it, you could buy some nice cars for that, but probably already does.
Like collecting stamps I guess.

At least the plate is a known factor and not like the dopes that paid $2.3 mil for some dumbass sneakers. Only in the US.

It's the rarity that makes them valuable. There are only 9 single digit plates, and 90 double digit ones.
