Good work fella's - we need some distuinguishing features of the cars to avoid double counting.

Any suggestions welcome.



Only way to really distinguish between cars over a long period is chassis/VIN numbers, as engines and number plates etc get changed over time.

If you only use part of the VIN (say last 4 digits or something) you'll still be able to protect the owners and cars identification?

Vin numbers last 4 digits with last blanked out should avoid doubling up and still offer protection againt cloning.

Great idea mate. VIN on my black 3dr is 741*
I do know of two other 3drs in WA. The two Moonstone Blue as below. Previous owner of the first 3 pics was a member of the WARSOC but sold about 2 years ago. He bought this car across from the UK some years ago. New owner's name is Mostyn.
Last pic is a RS500 owner by Max. Unsure of VIN's but.








Also in WA is this Ash Black EsCos. Belongs to Karl. Again, no VIN available at this time sorry. That is my 3dr in the BG. Just gotten off the truck. Still had SA plates on it.




This thread reminds me its time to update my thread... Stay tuned!

My Sapphire is a 1988 Diamond White. It was purchased new in London by a famous person and sent to Australia when it was 3 months old.

Final VIN sequence: 7074*
