How to read it
Reading a 20 plate
A March plate carries the year's last two digits, so 2020 gives 20. A 20 plate car is about 6 years old now.
The two letters before the number show where the car was first registered, and the last three are random.
At this age a car has had at least one MOT. Its MOT history shows every test, fail and mileage reading, free.
