Re: Dax Chassis Number

Hi you all,

Regarding the vehicle sérial number,the european rules says that it must have 17 caracters,it's called the V.I.N. (vehicle identification number)

So all mass-production cars that have an european approval have this V.I.N.

Maybe,as their cars can be registered in some continental lands (germany,etc) DAX put 17 caracters serial numbers on them to make easier such registrations.

Take a look at a mass-production V.I.N.,you will see that are included some "strange" caracters (ZZZ on VW,many "0" on FIAT and others),that's just to "fill" the ante-V.I.N. rules serial number,and run it to 17 caracters.

Regards

Denis
