vin numbers
when ordering parts, i notice that a lot of the suppliers list parts for vin numbers upto ie, Defender vin 2A622424 on, but when i look at my vin number its more along the lines of SALLDHMB***,

Can someone explain how the defender/suppliers listing of these vins works, been up on night and cant focus on things like numbers, any help will be appreciated.

In the example you give, I believe they are just quoting the last 8 digits of the VIN.

This is a useful link:
