Wiki is your friend. I borrowed that saying from FWH

These are Honda´s model designations.
FK1: 5 door 1.4 petrol
FK2: 5 door 1.8 petrol
FK3: 5 door 2.2 diesel
FN1: 3 door 1.8 petrol (Type S)
FN2: 3 door 2.0 petrol (Type R)
FN3: 3 door 2.2 diesel (Type S)

These codes are part of the VIN.
VIN is Vehicle Identification Number. Read more about VIN on Wikipedia.
The VIN can be found on a metal plate inside the lower part of the windshield.

For example:

SHHFK37607U000258

Is a 5 door 2.2 diesel (FK3) from Model Year 2007 (07).

SHH is Honda Swindon UK, the plant where the car is built.
