Basically march they have an 0x plate, so this year 08, and then october they have a 5x plate, so 58, so 2 new plates a year.
Was because dealers were annoyed with people only buying cars once a year, as it used to be alphabetical a-b-c-d every March, so they brought in 2 changes a year.
never quite understood the plate snobery.....
