Hello Widon,

Request your inputs/pdf on the below VW Vento Vin. From the earlier posts, I could make out that its a Feb 2012 model. Any further information would be helpful.

WVWB12602CT031956

You have decoded it correctly, No other information from this VIN.

Make : Volkswagen
Model : Vento
Production Date : 17.02.2012

Hi, Wildon,

My father will be taking delivery of New Wagon R this week. Request you to help us find the Year 2012 Vin code details.

Thanks

@ LongDrive

Get the Full Chassis Number and it will BE like this *MA3xxxxxxxxxxxxxx*xx

If the Last 2 characters are BC then its February 2012 made Car. in which B represents month February and C represents Year 2012. if its CC then its March 2012 make.

In the Old Wagon R the chassis number were located at the engine bay compartment and showing you a reference picture here.

@Quatro

Have you received the RC Book / Smart Card for your Vehicle. If so what is the Manufacturing month and Year written in it.?

Hi Wildon,
Could you please help in finding out the production/model year of my VW Polo? The VIN is WVWB12607CT030205. As per the decoding guidelines, I could see that it is a 2012 manufactued vehicle. But in the Registration details (RC) in website says that the manufacturing year is 2011. Could you please check by any chance the model year can be 2011?

Make : Volkswagen
Model : Polo
Production Date : 09.02.2012
Model Year : 2012

Recheck with the R.T.O and check the manufacturer declared documents. May be an error while doing the entry.

Thank You for this. I may need to check with R.T.O.

PS: That was really fast. Seems like you have setup an SLA for yourself clap:

Dear Wildon,

A friend of mine has booked a WagonR VXi "MA3EWDE1S00391573"

Can you throw more light on this please?

Santosh

Not yet. Will take around 10 days. I am also keen to find it out.

Thanks.

Please refer this post

As per the previous experiences from owners it would be November 2011. But Please update us when you get your RC.
