2000 180TTF - TRUTS28N3Y10#####
2000 180TTQ - TRUUC28N9Y1016343 <-- mine
2001 180TTF - TRUZZZ8NZ110#####
2001 180TTR -
2001 180TTQ -
2001 225TTQ - TRUWT2897110#####
2001 225TTR - TRUUT28N2110#####
Australia: 2000 225TTQ - TRUZZZ8NZY10#####
Iceland - 2000 180TTF - TRUZZZ8NZY10#####
Yes, the above two VIN's match, except for the last 5 digits.
Does anyone have the two VIN's I am missing they can post and I will edit this post?
