Vehicle & Dates

DATING

The two dates that matter and everything needed to trust them — model year and registration date side by side, with the manufacturer, model, package, engine and gearbox that pin the car to a specific production run.

Build Specification

BUILD

The factory order sheet begins — each option carried as a three-character code beside what it means, in two columns. Trim, suspension corners, glass, seats, airbags, mirrors, axle ratio.

Option Codes

OPTIONS

The rest of the order sheet, running to the end — engineering year, emission standard, chassis equipment, headlamp control, lane keeping, digital radio. Read together these date the build far more precisely than a model year alone.

Dealer & Mileage Record

INVOICES

Every dealer invoice with its date, workshop, odometer and the job codes worked. The first line is the pre-delivery inspection at 5 km in November 2018 — the entry that fixes when this car actually entered service.

A complete dating record

Every section comes from a real manufacturer dating record — an Opel Insignia built to 2019 model year, first registered in November 2018, with the dealer invoices that prove it.
