Part of the number is internationally recognised.
Generally (universally?) the first 3 digits denote the make (manufacturer) of the vehicle.
SAJ=Jaguar.
W0L=Vauxhall/Opel
WVW=Volkswagen.
ETC
Then the rest is up to the manufacturer, with he understanding that the last 6 are "frame numbers" for the make/model, and are as such "unique".
SO you might get W0L000058R123456.
W0L=Vauxhall/opel.
58R=Cavalier 5 door hatch.
123456=unique number for the 5 door hatch cavalier in question.
You might get W0L000073R123456, but then 73R is a Corsa van, so the 123456 is still unique, there will be only one 73R followed by 123456.
Hope this makes sense.
