I've been having a big problem with adding the names to those Ford Capris of the 1970's that were made in what was then West Germany and sold in Lincoln-Mercury dealerships; How do you load the "MkI" and "MkII" designations so they show up in the proper places? Prime example here:

I've moved the MkII designation every possible way, but it never shows up the way it should.

Put a number '2' in the MK field (between chassis and class fields).

I've fixed it.

I had the same problem here. As explained by Sandie and antp, the Mk field must be filled with digits only, not with I / II nor with a / b...
The script translates it then in roman numbers, or, if I'm not mistaken, in letters for Opel.

If Ddey65 is Ok with it, could a forum moderator rename that thread How to fill the Mk field when adding a new vehicle or something like that? This problem seems to occur regularly, so it could be helpul to find it more easily in the forum?

That was actually the first thing I did, and it didn't work. Thanks for the help, anyway.

At the right of the field there is written:

(digits only, mostly for European cars; but a letter - for Opel - is accepted and converted)

I'll precise "0-9 digits only".
I can replace that by something easier to understand if you provide me a better one...
