If the MoT has accidently run out, just treat it as reminder for next time a test is due.

1. '25 O': £518,000
The priciest ever sold by the DVLA, bought by Ferrari dealer John Collins in 2014. The plate is now thought to take pride of place on a Ferrari 250SWB once owned by Eric Clapton, worth around £10million.
