Hi, can anyone tell me what the first few letters of a vin on a GTE are? Tryin to get a Q plate taken off mine for an age related plate, want to confirm my vin is vauxhalls own as plate is missing. Thanks

I wouldve thought the first few letters would be the same as all older, if not all vauxhalls anyways, i know for a fact all Seat and Renault chassis numbers start with the same five/six letter combinations!

So if thats true you just need the first bit of any vin, it certainly wont be any different on a GTE!




A quick google seems to show that nova VIN's all start VSX0000

It should start

VSX000093

The 93 denotes a 3 door shell, the first letter after the 93 denotes the year it was made so

VSX000093M is a 3 door hatch made in 1991

If you go to the local dealer, they should be able to enter the VIN into EPC and tell you what model it is?
