A. Kahn owner turns down $9M offer for his Veyron's 'F1' license plate

Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4

Afzal Khan has a lot of money. This is, after all, the guy that spent $870,000 for the United Kingdom vanity plate F1. Now, as further proof of the high-end tuner's wealth, he's turned down a 6-million quid offer for the rare license plate. Who offers $9.3 million for a pair of rectangular pieces of metal? And... more importantly, who turns it down?

According to The Daily Mail, Khan rejected the offer, with a spokesman explaining that, "Mr. Kahn has no interest in selling F1, which is his favorite plate." As The Mail points out, Khan's move to snap up F1 when it went on the market in 2008 was a prudent financial move if he's getting multi-million-pound offers for it.

F1, which spends most of its time on Khan's Bugatti Veyron, isn't the only rare plate in Khan's garage – he also counts 4HRH and NO1 as part of his collection, although it doesn't sound like either one is quite as valuable.
