Place VIN's on different cars. - Carl - 2015-08-16 16:00

There isn't much to explain here, but what I mean is I would like the ability to remove a VIN from one car, and switch it with another. This means that if I find a VIN I like I can keep it, similar to private registrations in the UK. yay or nay?

Thats called "Ringing" here in the UK and is highly illegal Tongue

However I do like the idea, but maybe able to purchase special VIN's could be a possibility.


RE: Place VIN's on different cars. - Carl - 2015-08-16 16:04

I think it is legal only if you own the plate afaik. But your idea sounds great too!

Maybe you could buy a Special VIN for 10k more?


RE: Place VIN's on different cars. - Carl - 2015-08-16 16:13

Yes Otava Smile but not 10k more, the owner of it would be able to set their price. Smile

A VIN is not your number plate, it's a vehicle identification number. These come pre-stamped when the car is made in the factory and you cannot change them, unless you buy a new car of course.

A VIN is not a number plate, but that is how a car is identified in the insim similar to a number plate. I see what you mean though, but that is how cars are bought and sold with the insim, so it acts as a number plate.

I am awfully confused now lol, but I understand what you mean Bez Tongue

My VIN is the best though: AAASH Smile

I want vin kooko


RE: Place VIN's on different cars. - Carl - 2015-08-16 16:27

Indeed, and it would be a shame if you lost that VIN due to the car breaking down so it would be great if the VIN could be removed but I see what Bez means about it being put on the chassis from factory.

Mine Would OTAVA


RE: Place VIN's on different cars. - BP - 2015-08-16 16:34

I'm not sure if this is possible due to the way VINs are created.
If it's possible, then why not.


RE: Place VIN's on different cars. - Ash - 2015-08-16 16:38

If anyone is interested, the most recent VIN issued is 'ABJNF'.

Not sure how to work out how many cars we have solved, but im sure theres a simple way lol Tongue
