Is Ford ETIS ever wrong?

Featured Replies

I have a bright yellow Focus Millenium, but ETIS tells me it is different. According to ETIS, it is a Zetec-E in Panther Black metallic. Ermm, very definitely no. The V5 says it is a Millenium in Yellow also.

Anyone know whether this can be corrected?

Cheers.... seems mine should have cruise control but hasnt!

 

Do you get same wrong result if you do it by reg no and by vin number?

I reckon the yellow ones were taken off the production line to paint.

Same happens with the yellow Fiestas, they usually come up as red.

Does the VIN match your car?

It does say "Panther Black" but in the minor features column, it does say it's a MIllenium.

Perhaps they were re-sprayed off-line

ETIS is wrong by the looks of it, just put in another Millenium and it comes up Zinc Yellow.

Focus 1998-2005, 1.8L Zetec-E EFI (115PS), Zinc Yellow
Focus 1998-2005, 1.8L Zetec-E EFI (115PS), Zinc Yellow
VIN Number: WF0AXXWPDAXMxxxxx
Registration Number: W1xxxxxx   (17.05.2000)
First Registration Date: 17.05.2000
Registration Country: GB

there are even vehicles missing from ETIS - friend had a 2016 Kuga (supplied brand new from a Ford main dealer) that ETIS says doesn't' exist
