The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is each vehicle's unique 17-character fingerprint. Decoding it confirms the car matches the listing.
Where to find the VIN
- Bottom of the windscreen, driver's side
- Driver's door pillar
- Registration certificate
What it reveals
Make, year, factory, engine and often the original equipment. Cross-checking this manufacturer data with the listing quickly exposes any inconsistency.
