witstu Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Have been told that if i am to buy a uk car all bodywork panels should have a barcode sticker on them? Have spotted the ones on the wings when bonnet lifted, but where are all the others? Thanks for all forthcoming replies. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 who told you this? it may well be the case that panels are barcoded, but i can't see the point in checking for every panels barcode. is it to see if it has been crashed or damamged, if so it would be easier to get an HPI check done. far easier Quote
sunset350z Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Any crash damaged Zed will probably be minus the barcodes. Its an easy check on the front of the car to see if anythings been done to it. The 2 wings and front bumper should have them on. I had one missing on my old Zed and found out that it had a new wing at some time. Not too sure about whether Imports have them as the one i viewed the other day didn't have any at all. Quote
witstu Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 Yes apparently its a good starting check to see if it has been crashed, as any replaced panels will not have them on. Quote
