If you have bought and Elgrand, or you are looking to buy and want to know/confirm basic details, you can use the EPC Data database to get quick answers.
If you click the link below and enter the chassis number, it'll tell you more info about your Elgrand, including the model, engine, variant, colour codes and optional extras from factory.
https://Nissan.epc-data.com/Elgrand/
For example, here is mine
1 = Model (E50/E51)
2 = Engine (VQ35/VQ25/QD32/ZD30/VG33/ETC)
3 = Transmission (2WD/4WD)
4 = Production Month
5 = Number of seats from Factory (7/8)
6 = Variant (V/X/HWS) - NOTE Rider will show as V/VG as they are BASIC modles taken by Autech to finish off, and optional extras added)
7 = Interior Colour Scheme
8 = Paint Code (If your Elgrand is 2 Tone, you will need to use the paint code above to find the 2 separate colour codes)
9 = Optional Extras (I don't have any listed, but other models will. Hover mouse over for more info).
On another note, if you are looking to buy, and you want to make sure all the boxes are ticked, you need a Car VX Report. You can find out more about these in the technical section of the forum (when you have 10 posts, or immediate access for premium members). The Car VX report is a MUST for any buyer, just to make sure the history of the vehicle checks out. It will give you peace of mind when you place your order and has helped more than a few of our members steer clear of some potential disasters (clocked cars, bad history, different model information etc). It's important you understand what the Car VX report is, and how to use it, so make sure you read all the info in the section below. Do not just go to the website and get a free report - you'll get wrong info and create unnecessary problems for yourself.

So this is a Rider then? Which hasn't been passed to Autech as it's not officially a Rider??? Anyone??Tada!!!!
Hey StempyunoThat's a Highway Star. Riders start out as VG's before going to Autech.
It says Highway star here...weird ...somehow I came up with V/VG before...I did something differentYes I did the search. I think I must've got confused with something but here is a screenshot of what I have now...
Oh thank you!!Here's a thread you may find interesting.

I want a new battery soon. what is the exact model I need do you know. ThanksOn my S1 it is inside the engine compartment, to the left of the battery under the wing panel. You can barely see it in this pic but to the left of the big black box. View attachment 17504
