Plate Details

YEL 495S is a suffix-style registration. The suffix letter S at the end of the plate identifies it as a 1977 registration. Suffix plates were the standard UK format from 1963 to 1983. Under DVLA rules, YEL 495S can be assigned to any vehicle first registered in 1977 or earlier. Suffix plates with strong initials or short numbers are among the most collectable formats available.
