Abu Dhabi Police Car Auction
Unclaimed vehicles standing in various parking lots, vehicles that are not claimed for three-months or ones with huge amounts of unpaid traffic infractions and fines are auctioned by the Abu Dhabi Police in the Abu Dhabi Police Car Auction.
The auctions are invite-only and generally include sports cars, classic cars and new models of known car brand names – even the highest bid for these cars can be much lower than the actual worth of that model.
Apart from cars, the Abu Dhabi police also auction distinguished vehicles, one-digit license plates and classic motorcycles on special occasions. Please note that all cars require an authentic number plate, read on to know more about Abu Dhabi number vehicle plates.
