1 TUX private number plate

1 TUX is a four-character dateless registration. The one number followed by three letters format presents a single digit followed by three letters. The number 1 is the pinnacle for any initials set, holding a distinct desirability among collectors and buyers. Its short, uncluttered layout further enhances its visual appeal. As a dateless registration, it carries the clean look associated with historic plates, a style often favoured for its timeless quality.

The initials TUX offer a straightforward reading. While described as niche in terms of demand, their clear presentation makes them adaptable for personal use. This registration format, with a single leading number and three trailing letters, is strongly associated with the earliest eras of vehicle registration in the UK. Registers of this type are finite and attract considerable collector interest due to their historical significance and scarcity.

The registration 1 TUX was first released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2025. It sold for £12,275 (hammer price).
