Just to confirm it's Cowley

Look at your VIN 11th letter from left
M = Cowley
D = Longbridge

Have a look at this thread about Wxxx COA reg. cars.

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=21242

A large number of both painted and unpainted body shells were sent to Longbridge just before production finished at Cowley.

These bodyshells were to shorten the time delay in getting the production line up and running at Longbridge.

Although I don't know if these bodyshells had Cowley vin. no's or Longbridge vin.no's. Also, what the sill finish would have been.
