  • Mk2 Golf GTI Identification Plate?

    I was just wondering whether there is a plate or something somewhere saying what country and factory the car was built in and perhaps the import number. I have had a look around the engine bay and have no idea where it is (if there is one)

    Cheers

    VinDecoder.net to name one. But decoding the optional extras sticker beside the spare wheel is more fun.

      You can submit your VIN to the Autostadt museum and for a fee they will post you your "birth certificate" with all the details on it.

        My Bentley Manual decodes the VIN as follows:
        7th and 8th number = model
        Letter in the 10th space = model year (F = '85, G 86, H 87, J 88, K 89, L 90, M 91 and N 92)
        Letter in the 11th space = country of manufacture (V for US, W for Germany, M for Mexico)
