If you have your VIN, Topix will give you your vehicle's build sheet, so everything is specified.

That's interesting to know, any idea how long it takes for a VIN to be allocated in the car order/build process?

Got to remember that the UK has going from memory 8 or 9 different build spec's because they can & it is built locally & customers can basically order what they want. IE: Base model with 5 electric leather seats.
We can't do that & we get a choice of basically 3 models with options. (S, SE, HSE)
So even tho' you have ordered (at a guess) a TDV6 with extra's those extra's on the UK build spec will be an SE.
If you have the VIN it will read something like SALLAAAN5EA******
The "N" in the VIN determines LP.
Otherwise the VIN will read SALLAAAF5EA****** HP, & SALLAAAG5EA you have a DPF.

Thanks for that, all good information. Any idea how long before the VIN is issued one the order has been placed?

Tiddy, I had a look on my vehicle spec sheet and the spec date was 10 Dec 2013 for a build date on 6 Jan 2014. On 14 Jan I was given my VIN number. Hope this helps.

As Stotty has said, once the vehicle goes into build, the VIN becomes available. If you know your build date which should be on the screen dump, then give it a week or so & the dealer should be able to provide you with the relevant info.
