SCOTLAND’S FIRST NUMBERPLATE FOR AUCTION.

One of the earliest number plates ever issued could go under the hammer later this month.

The registration mark "S1" has been estimated to fetch between £200,000 and £250,000.

The historic plate was the first registration number to be issued in Edinburgh and it belonged to a leading pioneer of motoring.

This month's sale marks the first time the registration number has come on the market since it was created in 1903.
