86 ET private number plate

86 ET is a four-character dateless UK private registration, presenting a concise two-number, two-letter format. Its short layout offers a clean and desirable aesthetic, a characteristic often sought by collectors and owners looking for a streamlined registration. The two-letter combination of ET is considered to have mid-market appeal, suggesting a broad potential audience without being overly common.

This particular registration format, combining numbers followed by letters, does not display a year identifier. Registrations of this type have the timeless look associated with dateless plates and have historically been a popular choice. The number 86, as part of the "numbers-first" dateless style, contributes to its classic appeal.

Owners and enthusiasts of certain Toyota models may find the number 86 particularly appealing. The registration directly mirrors the numerical designation of popular performance vehicles such as the Toyota GR86 and GT86, and also aligns with the numerical element found in the Toyota GR Yaris. This makes 86 ET a potentially fitting choice for those who appreciate a connection between their private registration and their vehicle.

This registration was first released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2019. It sold for £4,536 (hammer price).
