120 V private number plate

120 V is a four-character dateless registration, presented in a three numbers followed by one letter layout. Its short format contributes to its visual appeal, offering a clean and concise appearance. Dateless registrations generally possess a timeless aesthetic due to the absence of a year identifier.

The number 120 is a three-digit numerical component. The single letter V stands alone at the end of the registration. This format, while not featuring a specific word or name reading, offers potential for personal significance as a set of initials. The letter V might appeal to those whose name or initials relate to it.

The format of 120 V aligns with that of registrations originally issued from areas such as Lanarkshire, under the historic coding system. Such registrations have the clean look associated with dateless registrations, and their survival from an earlier period of vehicle registration adds to their appeal for collectors.

This particular registration was released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2022. It sold for £15,421 (hammer price).
