Default How do I find my model number?

I am trying to work our excatly wich model Accord I have got but cannot seem to find it in any of the cars docs. I am guessing maybe it is part of the VIN number? My VIN has CE5 in it, would that be it? It's just everything (part wise) I have bought for the car or has been ordered by my local Honda dealer has been for ... CC7, CE8 but never CE5???

Can someone please help

...but here: http://www.furuvarp.com/~jall/hondac...accordlude.htm it says that the CE5 is for the Ascot with the G25. Maybe I'm wrong h:

I can see what you said makes sence, the only bit of the VIN that makes any sence is the CE5 bit but according to the link above mine would be a CE8??? Im sure Honda do it on purpose

Yea mine is, SHHCE55....etc so from that CE5 would be right, but that website shows the CE5 as having a 2.5 engine, mine is only a mere 2.0... like the CE8. Could it possibly be because my Accord came from Wales? There were other minor differences with body trim etc to the English model.
