Title: Websites to decide vin number?
Post by: Tinytim on September 08, 2016, 09:27:25 pm

There used to be a few sites that would decode the vin/chassis number or even the sticker in the boot with all the codes on.

It would show the exact spec of the car.

Does anyone know of any that are still up and running?

Found a couple from searching but the sites are long gone.
