You are correct James ... you're wrong :lol: :ok

If the original question is ... Can I tell it's age from the engine number DG***** then the answer should (in theory) be yes ... however it can only really tell us when roughly the engine casing was made. Many/most engines have been doing the Okey Kokey ... in, out, in, out and shaken all about ... several times over the past 20-odd years.

On a similar subject, many will know or have seen that a genuine VW reconditioned WBX has the original number ground off and a "VW" logo (within a circle) stamped on, THEN a number, here is mine =

What I would love to know if there is any way of finding out what year the number represents.
