Dealer Code 29800 is the code for Leaseplan Australia, not a dealer as such.

Thanks!

Just purchased the vehicle with no books and now ford aren't doing verification letters so am trying to piece together its history

Any recommendations on how to get any such information about the vehicle, factory options, dealer service history etc. ?

Does this car have Tickford wheels ?

I seem to remember 1Z was a Tickford option.
