    Search under ASP for whatever you want, they probably have already done it...

    I have a number of feeds. The consolidated list of manufacturer, model and derivative has 6,180 records but I have excluded date related data to avoid duplication. (This shortened list excludes details of tyre size and VIN numbers)

    I do however has feeds for make, model, derivative manufactured by year from 2001 - 2007. The source has been culled from my fleet emissions database hence it contains some date information, for example the data in 2006 vehicle list contains the following entries for the Vauxhall Vectra (partial set displayed else message is too long to post):

    VAUXHALL Vectra, MY2007 1.9 CDTi 16v 150PS without 19" tyre 5 Door Estate

    Some manufacturer data has no year ref and some just refer to 'New' models, for example from the data for 2000 (prob not so New now!):

    VOLKSWAGEN New Polo Hatch 3 & 5 Door E 1.0 50 bhp
    VOLKSWAGEN New Polo Hatch 3 & 5 Door E 1.4 60 bhp

    In total 13,323 entries but I am sure that if you take all of the data then there will be an amount of de-duplicating needed.

    Hope that helps
    Graham

    I have a year, make model database in excel, access and sql dump formats if you still need it. I could also use some help with coding to get my site using year make model dropdown menus if possible!

    Happy to help with coding in return for a copy of your data (useful to compare to mine and check to see it is comprehensive). What are you looking for, quick and dirty php/mysql where selecting a vehicle make from dropdown reloads the page to select model or something a little more elegant maybe AJAX call to dynamically populate the model when the make selection changes?

    Drop me an emil the-ferret@tiscali.co.uk
