About private number plate 1 WOB
The number plate 1 WOB immediately stands out due to the prominent inclusion of the number 1. Number 1 registrations are recognised for their high appeal, representing the pinnacle for any set of initials or a desired word. This plate has the clean look associated with dateless registrations and a concise, four-character format. Its short layout contributes to a smooth visual presentation, typical of highly sought-after registrations that do not show a year identifier.
As a dateless registration, 1 WOB does not show any year identifier, offering a timeless appeal. It belongs to the one number followed by three letters format, a configuration that has historically been very popular. This particular style of registration, with a number preceding three letters, was broadly associated with the circa 1953 to 1963 window, originally issued by Lancashire County Council.
The initials WOB are of decent popularity, suggesting a reasonable breadth of potential appeal for those seeking to represent their name or a specific phrase. The combination of the number 1 with these initials offers a strong personalised identity.
This registration was first released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2020. It sold for £17,030 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £21,867.
