VOL 1E for Sale

What's included with your purchase

Plate Details

VOL 1E is a suffix-style registration. The suffix letter E at the end of the plate identifies it as a 1967 registration. Suffix plates were the standard UK format from 1963 to 1983. Under DVLA rules, VOL 1E can be assigned to any vehicle first registered in 1967 or earlier. Suffix plates with strong initials or short numbers are among the most collectable formats available.

Registration History

VOL 1E was first made available in December 2006. The original issuing office for this combination is Birmingham C.B.C.. Local council and county borough offices issued plates within their geographic area — the issuing office identifies the regional origin of the registration. VOL 1E has DVLA auction history, having been offered at a DVLA auction in December 2006. The DVLA cherished transfer programme was launched in 1989, opening previously reserved registrations to the public for the first time. Plates are selected for DVLA auctions based on their perceived collectability and desirability — an auction appearance is a recognised indicator of a registration's historical market standing and collector appeal.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What could VOL 1E represent? +
  Many people would see VOL 1E as representing the name or word Ollie, Lie or Ole. As with all personalised number plates, the registration has no official meaning — it is a combination of letters and numbers issued by the DVLA that buyers choose for its personal significance.
• Where is the cheapest place to buy VOL 1E? +
  NewReg.co.uk currently lists VOL 1E at £4,575, with a total all-in cost from £4,655 including the £80 DVLA transfer fee.

Full DVLA transfer handling is included at no extra charge beyond the £80 DVLA fee. Finance is also available from approximately £391 per month (0% APR, subject to status).
• Why are some VOL 1E listings priced much lower than the market rate? +
  Some dealers advertise plates with a headline figure such as “from £200”, which can refer to their minimum site-wide price rather than an actual price for VOL 1E. The genuine market value of VOL 1E reflects its specific characteristics — plate format, letter combination, rarity and any name or word that buyers may associate with it. NewReg lists VOL 1E at £4,575 — the true market price — with a price match guarantee: if you find VOL 1E legitimately offered cheaper by another UK dealer, we will beat that price.

• When was VOL 1E first issued? +
  VOL 1E was first made available at a DVLA auction in December 2006, when the registration was released to the public for the first time.

Under DVLA rules, VOL 1E can be placed on any vehicle first registered in 1967 or earlier.
• Can I put VOL 1E on my car? +
  Under DVLA rules, a number plate cannot make a vehicle appear newer than it is. VOL 1E can be assigned to a vehicle first registered in 1967 or earlier — it cannot be placed on a vehicle registered after that date.
