Can't get a plate match against issued combinations apart from VM = Manchester Jan to May 63, VY = York Jan to July 64, or VW = Essex, March to July 60 (which was ADO9 era). The only Yx combination issued was YG, West Yorks July 61 to Feb 62, but it doesn't look like a G. Entering as Riley, but can't exclude Magnette.
