Footnotes

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Before bidding on Vehicle Registration number lots, interested parties should make themselves aware of the DVLA's rules and regulations regarding
the transfer of vehicle registration numbers. Bidders are also reminded that it is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to check any details of the
V750 or V778 document before bidding. The winning bidder must supply Bonhams Automobilia Department with their 'Nominee' details immediately
following their payment for the lot, so the form can be sent to the DVLA by the seller and changed by the DVLA accordingly (This can take between
2 to 8 weeks to process). When the change has been done and the form has been forwarded to Bonhams and then onward to the buyer it is most
important that they ensure that the registration number is assigned to an age appropriate vehicle within 1 month of the date of receipt of the signed
and completed V778 listing their nominee details, Bonhams will not be held responsible for the consequences of any buyer/nominee failing to do so.

BUYER'S PREMIUM
Please note that buyer's premium rates on registration numbers are as per the Motor Car section, which will be 15% + VAT on the first £500,000 of the hammer price and 12% + VAT on the balance thereafter.
