A couple of things. Your fan is on backwards.


your engine number refers to the following.

New and Gold Seal units for engine numbers prefixed 12H706, 12H707 & 12H831 for Clubman 1275GT

Thanks for the fan advice🥴 i remember reading about it being quite a common mistake 4 newbs like me

🤔on a connected note i sort of get the gist of matching numbers, but what exactly are they?
Does it mean the number on the engine plate is identical to the one on the vin plate or is it something else?

Nope.

 

what they mean the numbers on the car match the numbers when it left the factory.

Nick,are you sure those numbers are right ?  I have a Gold Seal listing that has 8G200 and 38G527 listed for the 1275GT. The numbers above off hand look to be what would have been fitted as new units in the factory.

Copied directly from an excel sheet I have had for some time.

 

not 100% sure of its history.

Thanks for your input nick, which numbers in particular are we talking about?

[nicklouse]

Your number comes up as a replacement for the ones I list.
