Hello lucianlegion

The easiest way is to look on your vehicle registration document (V5). This will show what the manufacturer declared the model as when it was first registered.

Alternatively you could go on an insurance comparison site and enter your registration as though you were obtaining a quote, this should bring up the vehicle details as held on the MIB database. This is usually correct but they have been known to make mistakes, especially with details like letters after the model number. The V5 is the better route if you can.
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all the evidence and pretend you never tried :lol:
