KAT 4R private number plate

KAT 4R is a suffix-style UK private registration with a 5-character layout, presented in the common LLL NL format. Introduced as part of the suffix series, this registration bears a year identifier from the period of August 1976 to July 1977. The '4' does not offer a direct visual substitution for a letter in this instance, meaning the registration functions as initials with an embedded number.

The registration is primarily identifiable by the three letters KAT, which form a recognisable set of initials. These initials are generally considered to have mid-market appeal within the UK vehicle registration landscape, suggesting a broad potential audience. The number 4, while a single digit, does not significantly alter the reading beyond its numerical value as part of the suffix structure.

This particular registration, KAT 4R, was sold via a DVLA auction on 22 February 2018 for a hammer price of £21,000. Considering additional fees, the estimated buyer total reached £27,216.
