A number of people have asked how to decode the CRIS VIN shown on our caravans. This I believe is the correct interpretation, so I hope it's some help.
Take for example this number SGAT000AV50001234.
SGAT000AV50001234 SG = Manufactured in UK
SGAT000AV50001234 A = Make of caravan is Avondale
SGAT000AV50001234 T = Number of axles (S=Single, T=Twin)
SGAT000AV50001234 Optional manufacturer's data (eg caravan model?)
SGAT000AV50001234 Manufactured by AVondale
SGAT000AV50001234 Year of manufacture (5 = 2005 - see list below)
SGAT000AV50001234 Optional manufacturer's data (eg batch number?)
SGAT000AV50001234 Caravan serial number
Year of manufacture codes.
N = 1992
P = 1993
R = 1994
S = 1995
T = 1996
V = 1997
W = 1998
X = 1999
Y = 2000
1 = 2001
2 = 2002
3 = 2003
4 = 2004
5 = 2005
