9 LDW private number plate

The 9 LDW registration is a four-character dateless number plate. It features a single digit followed by three letters, a format that offers a clean and concise appearance, with the number 9 positioned at the front, giving it a distinctive character. Dateless plates, such as this one, do not display a year identifier and are often sought after for their timeless look.

This plate is a standout example of a low number dateless registration. Within the hierarchy of dateless plates, single digits like the 9 here typically carry significant appeal, presenting a shorter and more streamlined visual profile compared to plates with multiple digits. This type of format is often considered by collectors and individuals seeking a desirable registration.

The initials LDW represent a decent level of popularity, suggesting a broad potential audience of buyers. This combination of a low numeric value, a short format, and a recognisable set of initials positions 9 LDW as a compelling option for individuals looking for a personalised registration.

This registration was first released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2015. It sold for £1,900 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £2,462.
