John Harrison Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hi again. My 2008 Vellfire 2.4 is a type 20, but nowhere on it or literiture can I find the letter type usually seen after the 2.4. I think it may be an S, looking at others, but not sure? It has 1 electric side door, 1 manual. All electric auto windows, cloth upholstery. I have attached several pictures. Can someone let me know if they can tell me S,G, etc? John Harrison. WALLASEY, WIRRAL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teekay Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) Can use the chassis number to find out the model code? Multiple sites do that. Let me know if you need pointer Edited June 8, 2022 by Teekay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Harrison Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Hi again. They are actually 17" rims with 55 low profile tyres.The suspension is perfect; not to hard, but not soft enough to wallow! Went to my brothers in Wales yesterday and covered 114 miles. Fitted a cruise control stalk a few weeks ago and as long as traffic is constant speed this makes a hell of a difference to the fuel consumption. Not checked today (filling up later) but had 7 people in the car and it ran beautifully! Probably getting less mpg than normal, as we had cases in as well, but recon it was about 24-25mpg. The suspension was down a little bit at the back, (a few larger people) but was extremely comfortable for all. There were speed bumps in several places, but even with a load on, never caught one!!! On the way back, with just myself and Erica, we went the scenic way back from Abergele to Wallasey. We did between 40 to 60 mph all the way (67-68 on the M53; maximum speed of the cruise control!). On the windy roads it was brilliant; even when I took a tight bend too fast at 40mph. It leaned over a bit, but stuck to the road like glue!!! Very pleased. It actually looks lower than it is. It is 61/2" from the road and only scraped one speed bump since I had it. I just have to take them a (little) bit slower. I have to watch when I gave to park nose in to a curb. It has to be standard curb height, also if someone opens the side doors wide and get in heavely; the door bottom edge will ground! Other than that, no problems with the height! Would thoroughly recommend these vans to anybody (and do!!) John H 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teekay Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 @John Harrison is that even possible to have 17inch tyre and low profile tyres on it? I thought the total diameter had to remain constant. Bigger the alloy, thinner the tyres. From what I know it doesn't make sense. By the way 58 mph is perfect, optimum, safe and best for mpg, if it is possible to stick to that speed without causing issue for fellow motorway users Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Harrison Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Sorry, they are 215/60R 17 96H, which is says in my Vellfire book, so right for the car. They work well 😁😁😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threepot Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 If you want to know the model, look at the sticker plate inside the front passenger door. It says MODEL DBA-GGH25W-NFTSK-C ..... thus it's a "NFTSK" Then look it up on this list:- ANH20W-NFXGK 2AZFE 24X CVFC VFIRE 07S ANH20W-NFXQK 2AZFE 24V CVFC VFIRE 07S ANH20W-NFXSK 2AZFE 24Z CVFC VFIRE 07S ANH20W-NRXGK 2AZFE 24X CVFC VFIRE 08S ANH20W-NRXQK 2AZFE 24V CVFC VFIRE 08S ANH20W-NRXSK 2AZFE 24Z CVFC VFIRE 08S ANH20W-PFXGK 2AZFE 240X CVFC ALPHD 07S ANH20W-PFXQK 2AZFE 240G CVFC ALPHD 07S ANH20W-PFXSK 2AZFE 240S CVFC ALPHD 07S ANH20W-PRXGK 2AZFE 240X CVFC ALPHD 08S ANH20W-PRXQK 2AZFE 240G CVFC ALPHD 08S ANH20W-PRXSK 2AZFE 240S CVFC ALPHD 08S ANH25W-NFXGK 2AZFE 24X CVFC VFIRE 07S ANH25W-NFXQK 2AZFE 24V CVFC VFIRE 07S ANH25W-NFXSK 2AZFE 24Z CVFC VFIRE 07S ANH25W-NRXGK 2AZFE 24X CVFC VFIRE 08S ANH25W-NRXQK 2AZFE 24V CVFC VFIRE 08S ANH25W-NRXSK 2AZFE 24Z CVFC VFIRE 08S ANH25W-PFXGK 2AZFE 240X CVFC ALPHD 07S ANH25W-PFXQK 2AZFE 240G CVFC ALPHD 07S ANH25W-PFXSK 2AZFE 240S CVFC ALPHD 07S ANH25W-PRXGK 2AZFE 240X CVFC ALPHD 08S ANH25W-PRXQK 2AZFE 240G CVFC ALPHD 08S ANH25W-PRXSK 2AZFE 240S CVFC ALPHD 08S GGH20W-NFTQK 2GRFE 35V 6FC VFIRE 07S GGH20W-NFTSK 2GRFE 35Z 6FC VFIRE 07S GGH20W-NRTGK 2GRFE 35X 6FC VFIRE 08S GGH20W-NRTQK 2GRFE 35V 6FC VFIRE 08S GGH20W-NRTSK 2GRFE 35Z 6FC VFIRE 08S GGH20W-PFTQK 2GRFE 350G 6FC ALPHD 07S GGH20W-PFTSK 2GRFE 350S 6FC ALPHD 07S GGH20W-PRTGK 2GRFE 350X 6FC ALPHD 08S GGH20W-PRTQK 2GRFE 350G 6FC ALPHD 08S GGH20W-PRTSK 2GRFE 350S 6FC ALPHD 08S GGH25W-NFTQK 2GRFE 35V 6FC VFIRE 07S GGH25W-NFTSK 2GRFE 35Z 6FC VFIRE 07S GGH25W-NRTGK 2GRFE 35X 6FC VFIRE 08S GGH25W-NRTQK 2GRFE 35V 6FC VFIRE 08S GGH25W-NRTSK 2GRFE 35Z 6FC VFIRE 08S GGH25W-PFTQK 2GRFE 350G 6FC ALPHD 07S GGH25W-PFTSK 2GRFE 350S 6FC ALPHD 07S GGH25W-PRTGK 2GRFE 350X 6FC ALPHD 08S GGH25W-PRTQK 2GRFE 350G 6FC ALPHD 08S GGH25W-PRTSK 2GRFE 350S 6FC ALPHD 08S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voodoo101 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Just had a look on Car.vx at the sample report sheet and noticed it has a section stated "Use History", where it says "Use in contaminated regions" and "Radioactive contamination test fail". It sort of put me off having a report incase I find something I dont like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gold dust on milage recall annual usage etc. but if it was meant to be a joke, my apologies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voodoo101 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I was a joke. Never seen a car report about radioactive contamination. My car that I have just bought has been in the country for three years, so I don't think there is much point in me getting it. If I was getting one fresh off the boat then I can see it being good.

The Japanese are nothing, if not meticulous and thorough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
