livepages::jquery();?>To complicate matters Land-Rover managed to mess up the VIN coding system.
Last 8 characters of the VIN code represent the year code and serial number.
Serialisation is continuous and does not reset at the start of a new model year or with a new model type.
AA****** = used up to end of 1987 models
EA****** = 1988 model year
FA****** = 1989 model year
??****** = 1990 model year = no references. Could be GA?
HA****** = 1991 model year
JA****** = 1992 model year
KA****** = 1993 model year
LA****** = 1994 model year
MA***** = 1995 model year
