Nissan auction sheet verification
From the frugal Note e-POWER to the Leaf EV and the legendary GT-R, Nissan's range spans everyday commuters to performance icons. Each has its own things to check, and the auction sheet is where the truth is recorded.
Why verify a Nissan?
Nissan EVs and e-POWER hybrids are increasingly popular exports — and battery health plus accident history are exactly what a verified sheet helps you assess.
Finding your Nissan chassis number
Nissan chassis codes are usually a letter plus digits, such as E12 (Note) or R35 (GT-R). Find the full number on the export certificate, under the bonnet, and on the door-jamb plate.
Nissan chassis codes by model

| Note / Note e-POWER | E12 · E13 | 2012–2020 · 2020+ |
| X-Trail | T32 · T33 | 2013–2022 · 2022+ |
| Serena | C27 · C28 | 2016–2022 · 2022+ |
| Skyline | V37 | 2013+ |
| Leaf (EV) | ZE1 | 2017+ |

| GT-R | R35 | 2007+ |
What to check on a Nissan
- Leaf (EV): the sheet won't show battery health directly, but confirms grade, mileage and accident history — pair it with a battery check.
- GT-R (R35): scrutinise the damage map for W/XX marks — many were tracked or modified.
- e-POWER models: confirm the generation (E12 vs E13) as the hybrid system differs.
- Serena minivans: check sliding doors and third-row interior wear.

Nissan auction sheet FAQ
How do I verify a Nissan auction sheet?
Enter your Nissan's chassis number above and we pull the original auction record with the grade, mileage and damage map.
Where is the chassis number on a Nissan?
On the export/deregistration certificate, under the bonnet, and on the driver's door-jamb plate.
Does the auction sheet show Leaf battery health?
Not directly — the sheet confirms grade, mileage and accident history. For an EV, combine it with a battery state-of-health check.
Why check a GT-R's auction sheet closely?
Many R35 GT-Rs were tracked or modified. The damage map's repair (W) and replaced (XX) marks, plus the overall grade, reveal what a repaint can hide.
