Re: V.i.n plate
if the VIN plate shows all of the VIN number then looking at VOSA's guidance it should pass. If the VIN number isn't complete then yes its a fail. Seems a bit of a grey area if the plate is partially damaged. Not sure if you can get a replacement from VW.

We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets.

Re: V.i.n plate
Hi there found the vin on the chassis under near drivers front wheel. That was enough but they still said I need a plate for next year
