Why to check the VIN number of the car with the decoder
The VIN is a 17-digit combination of symbols unique to each vehicle. This number is assigned at the production stage and remains unchanged throughout the life of the car. Checking a car by VIN gives you access to information that cannot be found out by visual inspection or from the seller's words.
Why to check the car by VIN-code:
- The maintenance history of the vehicle. It shows how regularly the vehicle has been serviced, what faults have been repaired and what parts have been replaced. Thanks to this data, you can assess the condition of the car, avoid unforeseen breakdowns and make a more informed decision when buying.
- Evaluation of technical history. Through the decoder, you can learn about serious changes in the equipment, about repairs and installed equipment.
- Reconciliation with documents. Information on VIN-code helps to check whether the number of bodywork and aggregates coincides with the number specified in the PTS and registration documents. Inconsistency may indicate that the numbers are broken or of illegal origin.
- Check the equipment. A complete list of options installed from the factory, allows you to make sure of the authenticity of the version. For example, the service of checking the Toyota vin code for free is in demand when buying Japanese cars from Europe.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Latest VIN reports
Where the VIN number of the vehicle is located
It is possible to find the VIN number without specialist assistance. The main areas where the VIN number is located are:
- Under the windscreen. The most accessible location is in the lower left corner on the driver's side. The number is visible from the outside through the glass.
- Door opening. On the body pillar on the driver's side, next to the door lock. Often on a sticker with technical information.
- Under the bonnet. In the area of the spars, engine compartment panel or on the plate near the shock absorber.
- Engine. Some manufacturers put a duplicate VIN on the engine block.
If the VIN is unreadable or obliterated, it is a direct reason to refuse the deal. Any signs of tampering should be a cause for caution.

Decoding VIN history of a car
The VIN code is a system in which each position carries specific information about the vehicle. A decoder can interpret this data to produce a report with complete information about the vehicle.
VIN structure:
WMI (1-3 characters): Manufacturer's Identifier. For example, ‘VF1’ is Renault, ‘UU1’ is Dacia, ‘WVW’ is Volkswagen.
VDS (4-9 characters): Vehicle characteristics - model, body type, engine, transmission, safety system.
Check Digit (9th character): Used to authenticate the VIN.
Model Year (10th character): Alphabetic designation of the year of manufacture (e.g. ‘M’ for 2021).
Factory and Serial Number (11th-17th characters): Indicates where the car is assembled and its serial number on the production line.
Running a car through the VIN is not just a formality, but a tool to protect the buyer. The report from BidCar contains a QR code that confirms the authenticity and relevance of the data.
