Craig 6995 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 This'll help too LM. The first letter is known as the Local Memory Tag and the second letter as the Local Identifier Then have a look at this link: http://www.knowledgerush.com/kr/encycloped...te_identifiers/ For example a car with the reg NR58 ABC was therefore registered in Stockton on Tees sometime between September 1st 2008 and February 28th 2009.
