ANN 12E private number plate

ANN 12E is a six-character suffix style UK private registration. It features three letters, two numbers, and a final letter. The letters ANN form a strong set of initials and may appeal to anyone with those initials. The initials ANN have decent popularity and a broader public recognition than less common initial combinations. An analysis of historical auction data indicates that personal connections, particularly a name or initials, are often a leading reason for buyers considering a private registration.

The internal number, 12, is a double-digit number. While single-digit numbers tend to be more sought after, double-digit numbers, such as 12, are generally preferred over triple or four-digit combinations for their concise nature. The E at the end serves as an age identifier for the suffix format. Registrations of this kind offer a timeless look to a vehicle since they do not include a year identifier at the start or end of the plate.

ANN 12E was released to the open market via DVLA auction in 2026. It sold for £12,978 (hammer price). This type of suffix format was first issued as part of a system that ran from 1963 to 1983.
