As topc really...just been asked to supply it for my insurance company..Ive looked on the v5 but it just says unknown..
Ive had a quick look on the engine but i cant find the bloody thing...please help :D ..
From memory its under either the alternator or next to the water pump, and is a major ball ache to read.

Yeah, it\'s on the front plate underneath the alternator (on the FD). Complete pain in the ass. Think it\'s a letter then six numbers if memory serves.
Engine numbers are usually the last 6 numbers of the vehicle identification number (unless of course the engine has been swapped).
Thankyou for the replys:) ...
Well ive had a good luck and i cant see the f*****g number !!!
last six digits of the vin number it is then ;)
:)
Is that true? Either I read my engine number completely wrong or she\'s had a new engine...awesome. My chassis number was the usual \'FD3S\' and then 6 numbers but my engine number was \'E\' followed by six different numbers.
I included the caveat "usually" the last six numbers of the vin. You may find you\'ve got the old engine but a whole new body after it was multiple rolled.
I wonder if the best thing to do is just make up the engine number anyway. Then, when your engine blows up you just have it taken out and tell the insurance company that someone stole it..........they offer to replace it, you get you engine rebuilt with the settlement money and put back in.
