About private number plate 488 RED
The private number plate 488 RED features three numbers followed by three letters, resulting in a six-character dateless registration. This format, with numbers-first, has a clean presentation.
488 RED directly mirrors the model designation for the Ferrari 488, making it a fitting choice for owners and enthusiasts of that vehicle. The letters RED also spell out the word "RED," which strongly connects with the iconic colour often associated with Ferrari. This combination of a vehicle match and a colour reference offers a strong motoring theme.
The "RED" initials are decent in terms of popularity, indicating a broader appeal for owners with these initials. The registration 488 RED was released to the open market via DVLA auction in November 2015. It sold for £10,100 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £13,090.
