you only NEED one and thats the number being stamped in the chassis but most have two, one being the chassis and the other being a plate riveted on somewhere looking pretty





built a car, built a home, had a family. lost the family, lost the home, still got the car.

2 on the drivers side.

at sva, only the one in the engine bay was checked, probably because we were late, ironically because i spent time the morning before the test stamping the second one

hey ho,

beat me to it, i'm sure the paperwork from LDO said it must be stamped in 2 places. definitely one then

I showed them the obvious one and they asked where the other was and checked it. It's on a plate tack welded on and it was accepted.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

DVLA lassy told me one main plate is required but advised stamping in a few more places as a theft deterrant as well. Unfortunately she said they are wanted cars and more key identifying features means easier to ID if it is ever stolen.

I have been known to weld my initials into steel brackets and put marks on key parts.
