JurassicZ Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Is there anything in the VIN that shows the car as a roadster, for example is there a particular part of the number that designates the car as a roadster or coupe? The V5 on my JDM has the car incorrectly listed as a coupe whereas all the Japansese export documentation shows it as a roadster, so I guess there was an error in the submitted documents to DVLA when the car was originally imported and i would like to correct this. I don't really want to go through the process of getting engineers out if I can just point to the designation within the VIN. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shenley Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I looked in my old books and the VIN should start, JN1 for the coupe, and JN3 for the roadster. Apparently.......... My stuff doesn't cover JDMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juggalo Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Mines a Roadster and it's JN1. Not a JDM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
