There were at least two cars:

WU54VKD (which seemed to wear code ZRY then later went to ELS Action and got the usual CFZ code):
/vehicle_550809-Vauxhall-Astra-2004.html

Info from a now deleted auction page copied on to the Skyfall page:

Quote Direct from a film company, this is the last available Astra from the hit show ' The Bill'. Also used in filming for the blockbuster film, James Bond, Skyfall, on false plates (LD59 USS). Light bar cover included in the sale. A photo of the car on location in Skyfall is included with the car, along with several MoT certificates.


Seen in these films on its real plates:

I just studied all the thumbs. I think there were 4 used...

ZYR - seems to use LD59USS
ZYS - seems to use LD59NDK
ZYT - seems to use LD59BYB
ZRY - seems to use LT59TBD

The last thumb shows us ZYR, ZYS, & ZYT. Again all of those are fake plates so maybe I just wasted 15 minutes of my life trying to figure this out.
