the colour code is stamped on the VIN plate under the bonnet at the front (by the latch) - werite it down and ring up vauxhall - theyll tell you from the code

:wink:

or if u trust us with your VIN number, give it us as we can decode it in the EPC program

talking about VIN plates, whats the law say on relocating it?

[joeczucha]

check inside the bonnet on the silver plate it should have a code - then just ask at Halfords and they will tell you the exact name :lol: Joe

ref vin plater law, as long as its an original vin plate and its visible in the place you usually find it on the car its fine. Should be pot rivetted onto car. Its when the serial numbers etc dont match your in bother.

if you need replacements you can get them from dvla (I think or somewhere like that) - about ?80 and they take for ever - seem to remember reading a post about this months ago...

you can remove your vin plate............

your VIN number is printed on your floor pan and by law you dont need the plate

I thought you needed it becasue of the weights and other info on it......

I can't remember seeing one on me Landy, but I have got the Military Reg.
