Reading a 74 plate
A September plate adds 50 to the year's last two digits, so September 2024 gives 74. A 74 plate car is about 2 years old now.
The two letters before the number show where the car was first registered, and the last three are random.
Cars this new don't need an MOT yet, so its history lives in the finance, keeper and write-off records a full history check reads.
