Hi Wildon,
Is it possible to get me a report on these Fiesta VIN's?

MAJBXXMRTBCA57539 - It seems March 2012 Manufactured.
MAJBXXMRTBCA57557 - It seems March 2012 Manufactured. Any other interesting data??

Planning to get one soon. FYI all: Fiesta Classic CLXI - 8.34 Lacs on road (Madurai, TN) with 3rd year warranty. Discount 5k from Ford.

Doing a great job there mate. Not many come front in taking time to do such. Much appreciated!

Re: ARTICLE: Find your car's date of manufacture (VIN)

Hi Wildon,

Can you please crack this VIN for Honda Brio:
DD174CCN001539

I tried to compare the VIN with the instructions on the first page of this thread but i am messing up somewhere.

Thanks a lot in anticipation.

P.S.- This is urgent so if anyone else could also assist, it will be great. Thanks.

Re: ARTICLE: Find your car's date of manufacture (VIN)

What about Chevrolet cars manufactured on 2009. the 10th digit is 9. So that could mean its 2009. How do I find the month?
