What is your Vin/Chassis No: ?

I can input this into the Japaneese parts finder & it will give me the month & year of build.

Yea, interesting... I had been told that the parts system displayed the build date, but it looks like it displays the registration date instead.

Thanks for that.

I suspect he want's to have his car MOT without a CAT test being carried out... To do this the car must be regestered before 31st July 1995.
