217-L-96
In the Republic of Ireland, the registrations carry the following info:
- What number car it was registered of that year
- Where it was sold.
- What year it was registered.
217-L-96 (the 217th car registered in 1996, yes my car is 15 years old)
217-
L-96 (This stands for Limerick, a place in Ireland.)
217-L-
96 (Made in 19
96. A new car would read X-X-11, for 20
11.)
Also, another interesting fact:
If you see a car with the number registered as 1, the car belongs to the respective counties mayor. So 1-D-11 Would be the mayor of Dublins Registration Number. This is why I find registration plates very interesting in Ireland.
