Hi Everyone,
I am being taxed as if I have a 2.0 when I really have a 1.7. So, I need to "prove it" to our state govt. Is there anywhere on the car that lists the engine size? I checked the door jam info and it wasn't listed there, the engine compartment and found nothing. Any other ideas? Thank you for any help, Ross |

Do not do as suggested above re the picture of another car and changing the color, etc. We call that Fraud; it is a felony in CA. The DMV asshats have nothing better to do than investigate and prosecute cases like that. My free 2 cents for your consideration.

It would not be fraud, he has a 1.7 Engine and his car should have the 1.7 one the back of the car. If it's missing it would be correct to find one to replace it. |
