Nick in Holland Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I bought a 1.6i Ford Escort Cabriolet first registered in 2000 in Holland. When I go to online websites in Holland it asks for the Reg No. But if I'm checking UK. sites I have to enter car / model / type / year ? because it does not recognise the Holland Reg. No. ? In both cases when I type in the Reg No.. or details some sites say XR3i ? some say Pacific ? most only go up to 1999 when mine is a 2000 European model. But then depending on which site I'm on it gives me different cars that I have ? and I have no idea which is correct Some say 88 PK ?some say 90 PK ? and then there's EFi, SEFi is there a big difference will most parts fit most cars ? ALL I do know is the engine type I have is its fuel injected 1.6 Zetec 16 valve. How do I find out exactly what I have so I order the correct parts from online sites ? Is there a register of all cars and what they are / have got ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetta Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 have you tried putting vin number in here https://www.etis.ford.com/vehicleRegSelector.do;jsessionid=4AA03EB1DCB4D64E908B6D643D617FF9.eccvas511 I do not know how many years this goes back and which countries of origin it includes. I did try it on a 1997 escort I owned in the past and it was there but with scant details. It was a Chicane special edition on the v5 but it does not mention Chicane here Build Date: 11.07.1997 Vehicle Line: Escort 1995-2001 Body Style: 4 Door Estate Version: CL Engine: 1.6L Zetec-E EFI (90PS) Transmission: 5 Speed Manual Transaxle - B5/IB5 Drive: RHD FWD Axle Ratio: 3.82 Emission: EEC 96 Car (EEC 1) Air Conditioning: Territory: (+)"GB" Paint: Pepper Red (Metallic) Interior Colour: Raven Interior Interior Fabric: Triangles/Kestrel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
