Does anyone have the type approval number?
Does anybody have the type approval number and category for my vehicle or am I going to have to get a CoC from VW?
Its a Golf Cabriolet 1.8 GL auto lhd. (Carb)
The form is also asking me for co2g/km and other emissions data, |dont know if I have to fill these bits in, but if you happen to have the info, I'd appriciate it.
Thanks!

I found the type approval number on the vin plate, but oddly it doesnt tie up with the docs I have from Spain.
It says ABE Nr B042, but searching for that, I found a German site that says my engine was 1781cc, I have 1760cc on the Spanish Paperwork, so I dont know which is correct, and the 66kw option has the homlogation date as 89, and mine, as far as I know is 84.
This is the German site I found, quite useful for info:

But the cabby boys should be able to help with that more than me, also the vin would give you a close build date.

Plus any factory extras it was ordered with if any I think because I did mine six years ago now.
