Gives most details, but getting grants we need age. An internet hunt says it is "Condensing" with no method of getting rid of condensate can't see that being correct, to be BS EN 9002 must be after 15 July 1994.

We don't want a new boiler, but can't get grants on other things if the boiler is too new.

from what i have read, you can not tell the age based on serial number unlike other boilers with a date code

How Old is My Worcester Bosch Boiler?​

Although Worcester Bosch might be the most popular boiler brand out there, it is virtually impossible to date their products unless you’re a professional. Their serial numbers were designed for internal use.

No matter how old a Worcester Bosch boiler is, its serial number will contain an FD number that has the production date coded in but that’s what it is – coded. So, if you need to tell the age of your WB, you’d need to contact their support team or phone in on 0330 123 3366.
 
I found a book inside the boiler, 15-06-2004 was the installation date, however it seems must be E or D to get grants, why the adverts simply don't say has to be E or worse I don't know, the advert was simply a time waster my house is D and only two points from being a C so any re-inspection likely will be a C.
