What is the car’s build date? For an imported car like a Hyundai to have a February 2014 compliance plate, it’s very likely that it was built in 2013. Hence, it will be a 2013 model.
Take it to a second hand car dealer and ask for a trade in price - they will price it as a 2013. If a car dealer were to sell it, they might advertise it as “first registered 2014”, or sometimes “Model year 2014” (a sneaky trick by some makers is to slightly change the model in September, then call it the next year’s model).
If the car was built in 2013, then it is and always will be a 2013 car. Does it really matter for insurance purposes? Insure for an agreed value and it doesn’t matter if it is perceived to be six years old or seven years old.
