Hi,

I am looking at exporting a Discovery from the UK, and in doing my homework
to see what I need to do this end before it goes on the road.

One thing I need to do is provide proof of the compliance standards the
Discovery is built to - apparently the normal thing the inspectors here look
for is some info from the vehicles chassis no / VIN plate where the
manufacturer states what international standards the vehicle complies with.
Things like frontal impact standards, emission standards etc they are
looking for.

If it doesn't have that info on the chassis plate, I need to get the local
LR dealer to provide me a document stating the same info, which apparently
the local guys charge $500 for... no desire to encourage people to import
outside the dealer distribution channels perhaps?? Even worse if they wont
provide a document for some reason, it has to be individually assessed and
who knows what that could cost.

Anyway, if someone out there has a Discovery 2 around 2000 vintage, any
chance you could take a look at the chassis ID plate and let me know what's
written on it? A digital photo would be even better, to
neil.pride@~antispamxyz~xtra.co.nz just take out the ~antispamxyz~ bit
first....

Hope someone can help!

Cheers,

Neil.


 
If you contact LR customer care they'll provide you with a certificate
of conformity free of charge.
