My entire vehicle history has been '90s PSA diesels. I just bought a 2000 registered Dispatch with XUD9 engine in it. I'm kinda hoping it took a few months to roll out of the factory, make it to the UK, and then be registered.

I checked ServiceBox, and the warranty started on same day as the V5's registration date.

What's the chances it's truly a 90s van :D

From ServiceBox, you'll be able to see the RP/Orga No.
Put that into "RP Decoder" on the web to get the production date.

Warranty dates there are all over the place, sometimes years out.
