Isang source ng pagidentify ng mini ay sa V I N (vehicle Identification Number). For example ang VIN ay SAXXNNAYCBD - SAX is the world make identifier, for UK and Rover group ,XN is the model code for mini 1300 range, N is the Class, always N on a Cooper, A is for 2-door saloon, the 8th letter identifies engine type, either M(carburetor cars) or Y(fuel inj cars). In the example, Y meaning fuel injection car. 9th letter,C means RHD fuel injection car with 3.21:1 final drive ratio. the 10th, indicates model change, The letter A is found on the Commemorative cars(the part list defines A as indicating 'special edition'), all others should be B. In this case ,its B. The 11 letter is the assembly plant. always D for Longbridge. SOURCE: Original Mini Cooper and Cooper S (The Restorer's Guide) by John Parnell
