1 KYX private number plate

The private registration 1 KYX leads with the number 1, the most sought-after digit for any set of initials. It represents the pinnacle number for the letter combination KYX, making it significantly more desirable to collectors than higher-numbered equivalents. The simple, four-character layout is clean and memorable, adding to its visual appeal.

As an initials plate, 1 KYX is a clear representation for an individual with the initials K.Y.X. or a business using the same letters. While the initials themselves have niche demand, this adds an element of rarity, making them less commonly seen on UK roads.

This is a dateless registration in the numbers-first format, with a single digit followed by three letters. It has the timeless look associated with dateless registrations and does not show a year identifier. Historical records suggest the plate was originally issued in Northumberland in a style associated with the 1953 to 1963 period.

The registration’s market context is informed by its public sale history. At a DVLA auction in February 2023, 1 KYX was sold for a hammer price of £10,400. The estimated total paid by the buyer was around £13,354.
