£200,000 PAID FOR THE “LEW 1S” NUMBER PLATE

A number plate that is fit for a star, that is how the number plate that bares the digits LEW 1S and clearly there would be only one person that such a number plate would suit. Formula One racing driver Lewis Hamilton has recently splashed out £200,000 for the number that has his name on it.

£200,000 paid for the “LEW 1S” number plate

A number plate that is fit for a star, that is how the number plate that bares the digits LEW 1S and clearly there would be only one person that such a number plate would suit. Formula One racing driver Lewis Hamilton has recently splashed out £200,000 for the number that has his name on it.

It is unusual for to find a number plate that actually has a name on it and LEW 1S is just one of the few which can provide this identity without the need to change or alter any of the letters and numbers.

The number plate was bought by a property tycoon, Bob Lewis only last year for around £50,000 he used on a Mercedes Benz, so it is only apt that an F1 Driver who also drives for Mercedes Benz should make him an offer he could not refuse.

Selling it for £200,000 is a no brainer really, making a profit of around £150,000 is good business, nobody is going to doubt that, but we have to ask the question: Was Lewis Hamilton doing the deal in Canada just before he hit the Ferrari?

A source close to the deal said: "It may sound like a lot of money but it is typical of Lewis not to care about cost when he really wants something."

A friend of the property tycoon said: "He dearly loved that plate. But business is business."
