T-Types are identified by the car number, which is derived from the
chassis number.  The full number as shown on the "maker's plate" should be
something like TD18213 EXL/NA.  The code letters EXL/NA stands for Export,
Left Hand Drive, North American market.  The code letters on yours may be
different, depernding on the year and the market for which it was built.

You also quoted a VIN, which I assume stands for Vehicle Identification
Number.  T-Types don't have VINs separate from the car number.  Where did
you find a VIN on your TD?

The Body Type (22381) and Body Number (17533) refer only to the body.

The engine number refers only to the engine (naturally).
