Terms for newbie

Sorry. Propably there's a topic already, but I couldn't find it.
Anyway, since english isn't my native lanquage, could someone please tell me...
"MY(12 or so)" does MY stand for Manufacturing Year?

Then something I haven't got a glue at all.
Plate 57??? What is this? Other numbers seen as well 58, 59?

Okay, I've had this car for a month now, my first Land Rover.
It will be easier to follow the forum when understanding what you guys are talking about. Bow down

And moderators feel free to move this to correct place Embarassed

Yes MY is manufacturing year.

07,57,08,58 etc. relate to the year in which the car was registered and the number appears as part of the registration "plate" number.

Your english appears to be a bit better than my Finnish! Very Happy John

Should add this is the system in UK only so contributors from all the other countries represented on the forum will share your confusion!

MY stands for Model Year.
The Model Year usually runs from September to September.
For example MY11 started production in September 2010, MY12 started in September 2011, MY13 started in September 2012. But just to keep everyone guessing MY14 started in November 2013.

Model year, license plate. Got it.
That plate-thing could be quite hard to find out without explanation.
Thanks! Very Happy
