Call me an idiot but my MOT will be due soonish and was wondering if there was a usuall place the chassis plate is put from or do they as i suspect differ from build to build?

VIN number is required as it appears on the test cert'. The tester find it from the chassis, V5 or an old cert'.

It's worth looking around for the VIN on the chassis just so you know where it is. Most likely on one of the tp chassis rails.

When i took my Ginetta the inspector said he could only find the chassis number in one place and that he could not carry out the test. Took it to anther place and he one it no bother.
