Avon RIB question

Hi all, May I ask for Advice please?

I’m in process of buying an Avon R3-10 RIB which the seller thinks is ‘about’ 10-years old.

However, the serial number ends D393 and I thought the last two digits were the age of manufacture, so in this case, 1993

The RIB looks newer than a 28-year old boat. Did they make Avon R3-10 ribs that long ago?
Am I right that the last 2 digits are the year of build?

Any knowledge appreciated!

Many thanks
UK Nick
