Marina Engine no....

Post by Matt »

Hi Guys

As you know my traveller has a marina/ital 1.3 engine

its really annoying that when i go to the motor factors they ask what year the car is, so can anyone shed any light based on the engine no?

According to the V5c its

12V923EHZ012275

Thanks

It's a 1275!! It's just about all they need to know.

With my ital engine I usually lie and say 'oh, 1984'. That's if they have ital listed. If they don't then I start resorting to 'well, try looking at Minis with 1275 engines'...

...at which point they start to look at me oddly :-)
