These were bought into issue for new vehicles when the prefix style expired on the Y series. The DVLA issue two series of these a year for vehicles registered in March and September, and the issuing series will run until the year 2049! Some examples of current style plates are: ST08 ART, EA57 TER, CO57 UME.
