How do you identify what year the car is?

You don't.
Edit- I'm assuming you mean NI?

Registration marks on number plates in Ireland issued since 1987 have the format YY-CC-SSSSSS where the components are:
YY — a 2-digit year (e.g. 87 for 1987; 05 for 2005), from 2013: a 3-digit year (e.g. 131 for January–June 2013; 132 for July–December 2013)[1]
CC — a 1- or 2-character county identifier (e.g. D for Dublin; SO for Sligo).
SSSSSS — a 1- to 6-digit sequence number, starting with the first vehicle registered in the county that year.
Pre-2013 where age is 1999
Post-2013 where age is 2013 Jan-June

^^^ This is it in a nutshell. From July onwards the plates are changing to 132-CC-SSSSSS, then back to 14-CC-SSSSSS from 2014 onwards.

It's not private, you can't tell the date from it.
NI plates are different from republic.

Or you could put the plate into the online DVLA check thing and see what it brings back.
Might not be 100% for all cars, but it might give you an idea.
