That would make it a prefixed plate e.g. S to Y plate seeing as TL belongs to Lincoln on the old series regs.

Well indeed. I made an edumacated guess on the basis of the TL being in the VRM and it being more likely than not that it was old-series as it was in Lincoln. But hey.

I also missed the word Facelift.....
