What does each digit in a VIN Mean?
A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique 17-character code made up of capital letters and numbers. Each character reveals key details about your vehicle, such as the manufacturer, model, engine type, production year, and more.
VIN Number Location
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a 17-character code unique to your car. On European vehicles you’ll usually find it in several easy-to-check places — grab your phone and take a photo so you don’t have to write it down.
Common VIN locations
• Driver’s side dashboard (visible through the windshield) — look at the bottom corner where the dash meets the glass.
• Driver’s door jamb / B-pillar sticker — open the driver door and check the sticker or metal plate on the frame.
• Under the hood / strut tower or firewall — a VIN plate or stamp is often on the front strut tower or firewall area.
• Trunk latch area / spare wheel well — some models have a VIN plate inside the trunk near the latch or under the spare.
• Vehicle documents — registration, title, and insurance all list the VIN (easy backup if you can’t spot it on the car).
