How do you interpret what a chassis number tells you?
Is it just a sequential number or can you get a lot more info than that from it?
If you have a chassis number how can you find out what it originally related to (if you have none of the paperwork)?

Chassis numbers tend to point towards the model / type and sometimes build periods.

It should tell you whether you have a series 1 or 2 etc, and possibly a code that would then indicate the engine size and type.

I don't know how to decipher one, but the above data is in the chassis number somewhere.

Thanks Tim

I wonder if Alfa would supply details if you gave them the number?

Hi, you can use this email address:

I used it to get info on the Giulia. Took a couple of weeks, but very helpful.

Thanks for that. I will give it a try after the Xmas period.
