Finding the vin number

Advertising


MessageAuthor

Hello. I am currently trying to confirm the identity of a Volvo 244 before resale. I have found the data plate with the vin number in the engine, but I guess that changing such a plate isn't much of a trouble for a skilled conman. I'd guess that the vin number is also imprinted somewhere on the body - the question is where? I know I propably should just hpi it, but I got curious about the whole thing.

It's also stamped on a bit of plastic fixed in a special recess in the top of the dashboard on the left. I don't know whether there is some rule about the VIN having to be visible from outside the car? And a sticker in the boot. On estates it's underneath the main compartment lid. I have a feeling I have come across it somewhere else, but can't now recall.

It's a VIN not a VIN number, that's almost as bad as getting asked to enter your PIN number :angry2: sorry, pet hate!:Banane32:

Viper_7 lists "Volvo Tax disc holder - increases power output by 5%" as a fitment on his S60; would this also woirk on other Volvos? If so I might buy one.
