10 JAN private number plate

10 JAN is a distinctive dateless registration. Its format of two numbers followed by three letters, or two numbers followed by three letters, creates a five-character registration that presents a compact and memorable impression. This structure aligns with the commonly understood patterns of dateless plates, offering a clean look associated with earlier registration eras.

The initials JAN form a strong basis for personal appeal. The DVLA has previously noted that personal connections, such as names or initials, are a leading motivation for individuals seeking private registrations. The initials JAN are of decent popularity and are likely to resonate with a broad audience, providing a clear and recognisable personal identifier.

Furthermore, 10 JAN has the potential to be read as a specific date: the 10th of January. This date reading can hold significance for those born on this day, or for commemorating anniversaries, weddings, or other personal milestones. Such date-specific registrations provide a unique and deeply personal way to mark important occasions.

This specific registration was released to the open market via DVLA auction in 1990. It sold for £5,819 (hammer price).
