VUI 1 private number plate

VUI 1 presents a distinctive four-character dateless registration. Its appeal is significantly enhanced by the inclusion of the number 1, widely recognised as the pinnacle for many initial sets, and by its concise, easy-to-read format. The structure of three letters followed by one number, three letters followed by one number, contributes to its clean aesthetic and is a style that tends to attract substantial collector interest.

As a dateless registration, VUI 1 does not show a year identifier, offering a timeless appearance. The 'V' at the start of the registration is associated with the Londonderry area, offering a subtle nod to its Northern Ireland origins. The 'UI' combination is considered to be among the lower demand initial sets, suggesting a greater rarity for those seeking a unique identifier.

The registration was first released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2019. It sold for £6,200 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £8,035. This specific registration has a history of sale at DVLA Auction in November 2019.
