WV2 : VW ZZZ: Empty, just to fill up 25: Type 2 (Vanagon) Z: Empty, fill up E: Year (84 or 85?) H: Built in Hannover 064643: 64643rd Vanagon built in that year The 3 "Z"�s are used in every VW/Audi in germany and the 4th "Z" also is a filling digit. In other states VW uses more Codes (describing engines etc), while in Germany it is not necessary. The VIN of my T3 is WV2ZZZ25ZNG000883 N: Model year 92 G: Built in Graz (the last 2WDs were built there) > Weird thing is that digit for engine is Z and none of the engines are > stated like that (only A, B & G); also the digit for the Restraint System > which is Z. Engine codes are not given in the VIN here in Germany. Raimund
