1 MLX private number plate

1 MLX is a four-character dateless registration presented in a numbers-first, one-number followed by three-letter format. As number 1, it represents the pinnacle for any initials set, making it significantly more sought after than comparable plates with higher numbers. The short, clean layout also contributes to its market appeal and collector interest.

The registration's format, one number followed by three letters, aligns with styles that have historically been of strong interest to collectors. Dateless plates from early issue periods are generally more desirable, with fewer digits typically creating a shorter and more streamlined registration.

This specific registration has a strong motoring angle, directly mirroring the designation for the BMW 1M model, which may appeal to enthusiasts of the marque and this particular performance vehicle.

1 MLX was released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2017. It sold for £8,813 (hammer price).
