New Brompton owner! Just got it off eBay used and wanna know the year for future maintenance. It's a medium bar C-Line 6 speed.
Is it a 2013 or newer? Anything to look out for? Are the majority of Brompton parts compatible with it or harder to get?

You can check the serial number on the plate located on the back of the seat tube for the date of manufacturing. First two #s are the year and the 3&4th #s are the month. So this is May 2013. It’s an older model but looks to be in good shape from what I can see. Parts aren’t too hard to find still. Also when unfolding start with flipping the left pedal down, otherwise you can scratch the chain stay.
