63 Plate New Cars - Latest Deals
Published Date: 14th Jun 2013
People do occasionally still ask us about the number plate format of a new car. New registrations in the UK changed from yearly to twice yearly in 1999. Not long after that in September of 2001, a new number plate format was introduced that is still being used to this day.
You can split a car number plate into three sections, the first two characters indentify the local region the vehicle was registered in, the second two digits identify the age of the vehicle (within a six month period), the remaining characters are used to make the plate unique.
The first age identifier in the new format for vehicles registered from September 2001 to 28th Feb 2002 was ‘51’ so you would get a number plate that looked something like the one below:
From the 1st March 2002 - 31st Aug the plate was 02, the table below illustrates the plate pattern and age indentifiers:
| 2001 | 2002 | 2003 | 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | |
| MARCH | 02 | 03 | 04 | 05 | 06 | 07 | 08 | 09 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | |
| SEPT | 51 | 52 | 53 | 54 | 55 | 56 | 57 | 58 | 59 | 60 | 61 | 62 | 63 | 64 |
