KAT 3S private number plate

KAT 3S presents as a five-character suffix-style registration, featuring three letters followed by a single digit and a final letter. The short 3x2 layout creates a clean and memorable presentation.

The registration works as the initials KAT, a mid-market initial set that finds appeal with a diverse audience. The structure also allows the single digit '3' to stand out visually, offering potential for personal connection or recognition. While the number 3 holds inherent appeal as a low single digit, it also visually suggests the letter 'E' for some, broadening its interpretative scope.

This style of registration, with a letter at the end, is characteristic of the suffix system. The suffix format was issued from 1963 to 1983. However, this specific registration, KAT 3S, was first released to the open market via a DVLA auction in 1998. It sold for £2,900 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £3,748.
