123 P private number plate

123 P is a dateless UK private registration with a clear format of three numbers followed by one letter. Its short, four-character length contributes to a clean and easily readable presentation. The ascending sequence of numbers, 123, offers a simple, pleasing pattern.

As a dateless registration, 123 P does not show a year identifier, lending it the timeless look associated with earlier issue formats. The historic authority code 'P' indicates an origin in the Surrey area, placing it within a recognisable UK administrative region from the early days of vehicle registration. This type of registration format, with fewer characters, is generally favoured for its visual appeal and concise appearance.

The structure of 123 P makes it suitable for individuals seeking a personal initials plate, with the letter 'P' offering a focal point for identification. Dateless plates of this kind are highly sought after by collectors and individuals looking to personalise their vehicles with a distinctive mark.

123 P was first entered into circulation through a DVLA auction in May 2016. It sold for £21,773 (hammer price).
