Recommended Posts

Good Afternoon Guys,

I am in the process of insuring my vehicle, No VW in South Africa wants to assist me so maybe one of you guys can maybe help out by calling your local VW.

I am looking for the "MM Code" and "Full Description of the Vehicle" as per VW.

My VIN number is WVWZZZ6XZ2B032124

Please gents this has been an on going battle for 2 years.

Even if anyone here has a 1.4 TDI Lupo who knows the MM Code that'll be perfect!

Much appreciated!!

This was originally a UK vehicle. I'm not sure what you mean by MM code though?

Yeah it was imported from the UK, I'm one of very few South African's who own the vehicle here. Only UK imports or from other neighboring countries such as Swaziland, Botswana or Namibia (those are usually UK / Japanese imports) exist in SA.

a quick google show the MM code as a means of valuation for the car

maybe here will help https://www.transunion.co.za/product/vehicle-valuations

From my understanding.... a VIN number is the number that identifies 1 vehicle, a MM Code is a shorter number that identifies all similar cars for example:

1.4 TDI Lupo - XXXXXX
Lupo GTI - YXXXXX
Polo 1.6 - ZZZZZZ

So I am wondering if the 6X1094 number is the Code the insurance company is asking for

Oh perhaps it means Manufactures Model Code? This is shown as the sales code, yours is 6X1094

Good Morning guys,

Thank you guys so much for your help!

Lupogtiboy, you are an absolute legend, after 2 years of owning my vehicle I finally was able to get insurance on the vehicle.

Also I did research on the MM code, seems it is only applicable to South African cars, my apology I did not know this.

(It stands for Mead & McGrouther which is a Valuation Book that is updated yearly with Retail & Trade prices, I think it was a bit stupid of the insurance company to ask me for that code if I specified that the vehicle was never sold in South Africa so it would never be in that book. but the Sales model helped a lot)
 

Thanks again!
