How do you read a UK number plate?
The format is two letters, two numbers, a space and three further letters. The first two letters are the DVLA memory tag, the two numbers (the age identifier) indicate the age of the vehicle, and the last three letters are random.
WHAT DOES year of registration mean?
year of first registration . , in relation to a vehicle, means the year in which the vehicle was first registered.
How do I find out what year model my car is?
A vehicle's Model Year is categorically defined by the 10th digit of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), and simply indicates any manufacturer-specified evolution in mid-cycle of a model range - such as new engine or transmission introductions, revised trim options or any other minor specification changes.
