Plate Details

FA05 SAM is a current-style registration issued in March 2005. Current style plates use a two-letter area code, a two-digit year code (05), and a three-letter random sequence. The 05 area code identifies it as originating from the Nottingham DVLA office, covering East Midlands. Under DVLA rules, this plate can be assigned to any vehicle first registered on or after March 2005 — it cannot make a vehicle appear newer than it actually is.
