Crit'air anti pollution sticker

Post by Kate »

Received by email. Any answers? I've written down here in article below as much as I know!! :-(

Dear Sirs
From your website I calculate that I need a orange E3 sticker to enter Paris in my petrol Honda Civic registered 29/3/2001.
The form asks for "Vehicle Identification number" but I can't see one in my V5C
Where is that number on the V5C they want?
For fuel is Gasoline the correct fuel?
Their assistance form is no good as it doesn't follow the V5C
Anu other help would be appreciated

I don’t know anything about your correspondent’s V5C, but the VIN can be found on a plate stuck onto the bodywork somewhere fairly obvious under the bonnet (or “hoodâ€￾ in American). Gasoline is called “essenceâ€￾ here.

Can I say, yet again, how much I hate these queries made at one remove, through you? You will note, as always, that this hasn’t stopped me trying to be helpful

Most modern cars have the VIN displayed in the bottom corner of the windscreen.

If it is a UK car then it should be on the V5C and on the MOT certificate.

I believe that European registration documents all use the same coding structure so it will probably be on the V5C in the space marked E

As Martyn says, petrol is called essence here, Gasoil is the French word for diesel and is sometimes written as gasole.
