https://checkhistory.uk/vehicle/T343SKG is a 1999 silver Vectra Estate, alive in September 2016. What makes it fake?

Weird. Instantcarcheck gave me an error screen normally seen with fake plates. First time this happened to me where it was a real plate. :think:

Interesting. Instantcarcheck returned a 1999 silver Vectra Estate 1.8i 16V when I tried it. I have on occasion received there a page with no car data (meaning the table with data wasn't even present as it usually is with N/A everywhere when the plate is fake or with no data), but if I tried again, it worked.

Yep that is the exact page I was getting. Thanks for pulling the data :)

I can only get the VIN on my cellphone but I only do 3 checks or less at a time so I do not DDoS the source.

Trim TOURER 16V
Colour Silver
Body ESTATE

Was there a "Tourer" trim or special edition??

[rac.co.uk] 'A bargain Tourer version of the 1.8 LS estate was introduced in autumn 2001 to buoy up sales'.
So, the info base isn't 100% trustworthy.

I cannot get the VIN so just speculation at this point.

They did the Tourer edition more than once. But not sure this one adds up as I think the original Vectra Tourer was the Estate version of the Arctic and wouldn't be on a facelift car.

There's also a trim badge on the side, which I don't think you'd get on the special edition ones.

Agree from Glass's refs that Tourer was effectively the Arctic in estate form. I can find 2 refs, each matching Arctic and Arctic II dates, available on same trim versions and with the same choice of 2 colours - Ceramic Blue/Star Silver metallic, followed by Premium Blue/Star Silver metallic. Same air con, alloys, and fogs on the second batch. Both were pre-facelift. No mention of bodykit such as the sills here.

There was a third Tourer batch in Oct 01 on the 1.8 16v estate with 16" 7-spoke alloys and ultra low profile tyres, body colour rear spoiler, air con and other cabin bits.
