About private number plate 197 O
The registration 197 O presents a clean, four-character dateless format, combining three numbers with a single letter. This style of registration is known for its concise layout, offering a strong visual appeal that often interests collectors. Its short, straightforward construction contributes to its desirability.
This plate is identified as a vehicle reading related to the Mitsubishi 3000GT / GTO / FTO, as well as potentially Mazda and Subaru models from Japan. For enthusiasts of these marques, particularly those with a connection to the GTO model, 197 O may hold particular appeal.
Originally issued in Birmingham, this dateless registration does not show a year identifier and carries the timeless look associated with dateless registrations. The "O" suffix, a historic area code for Birmingham, places it within a specific part of the UK's registration history.
In 2023, 197 O was released to the open market via DVLA auction.
Plate Circle brings together number plate history, value context, for sale listings, spotted records and verified sold-price history where available.
