daniel_g Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 There are a few types of regs, newer style like, SA02 OBM,SA - Where it was registered, Glasgow, Scotland02 - Year of registrationOBM - Random as far as i know.Then another one i have is T929 VMA which is the older style.T - Year of registration, 1999929 - Random as far as i knowVMA - Where it was registered, fuck knows.Think thats about right anyway Also on the newer style ones, 55 would be late 2005. 60 is 2010, 64 is late 2014 etc.And then theres private plates which ruin the system haha.
