Which is best to search by, Registration Number (Reg Plate) or VIN Number?
VIN Number, if you have it is probably the best option, though registration is probably more likely to be in the database. It is always best to search for both by entering them both together on the search page. Our search engine will return matches for both. It may even shown up two entries for seperate cars if for instance the VIN number has been tampered with on one car and duplicated on another. What is an Engine Number The engine number is the unique identification of the engine, the number will be stamped on a plate attached to the engine block, you may need to clean away some dirt to find it. The plate number should match the engine number printed inside the owners manual or maintenance record book. My sign-in doesn’t work and I’m using Internet Explorer 6.
