About private number plate 2 E
The registration 2 E is a two-character dateless plate, featuring one number followed by a single letter. This format is widely considered one of the most desirable UK number plate styles due to its extreme brevity, clean appearance, and scarcity. Short registrations such as 2 E often attract significant interest because of their simplicity and concise layout.
As a single-number, single-letter registration, this plate sits towards the upper end of the private number plate market. The numerical value 2 is a very low number, generally more sought after than higher single, double, or triple-digit numbers. Single-digit numbers are widely regarded as more appealing than their multi-digit counterparts because they create a shorter, more impactful registration.
This registration is of a dateless format, which does not show a year identifier, contributing to its timeless look. Registrations of this type, particularly those with a very short structure like 2 E, have a distinct charm for collectors. This specific registration was released to the open market via DVLA auction in 1998. It sold for £14,200 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £18,354.
