Does anyone (read bradc/nz crew ;) ) know what plates numbers were put on what years cars? In that i have a chassis number and want to find out what year the car is.

The chassis number is ec5w-0200256 (its a half cut), which i guess either means it is a very early model or a very late model?

thanks in anticipation

Sold my 1998 Legnum VR4 Type S
That chassis number is about 500 before mine.

Mine is late 98 (first of the FL) so I would say you have a 98 model :D

Hey Guys,

Punch the Vin into CAPS and it will tell you the manufacturing date.

But being a 02 number, it would be a Facelift, probably a mid 98 build (Caps not on this PC so I cant look it up)

Regards

If it's got a 2 I'm pretty sure it's facelift. Working purely off the cars I've bought, I think the final series from mid-2000 had a 5 where the 2 is.

Which would make it no. 256 of the facelifts...

So Dion,

Can we pry into knowing what you are picking up a half cut for?

so are you getting the entire engine and gearbox too?

I'm sure you could sell the gearbox in a second!

3rd of September '98 Dion :) Manual, white, black interior ;)

And yes Facelift

Went and had a look at it with Gilly the other day, was indeed a facelift, white with black interior, but for those playing at home, it was auto :eek:

It does have a 'carbon fibre' centre console though......

This sounds interesting, do you own the front cut or is it just at a wrecker somewhere?
