Recherche du numéro VIN pour Jaguar

Vehicle identification numbers are issued by Jaguar when they build each vehicle. This 17 character I.D. includes information about when the car was built, where it was built, and how it was equipped. While it’s possible to pass a vehicle off as a different trim, it’s all but impossible to falsify a VIN.

How does this help you find the right car? Let’s say you want to buy an F-Type. When this car debuted, handling performance was identical across all models, despite being offered with three engines. This is thanks to unique suspension and drivetrain components for each motor. An unscrupulous seller could simply swap engines, leaving the rest of the car alone. Without the accompanying upgrades, this could leave you with a car with great acceleration and terrible handling. While it’s hard to tell a standard differential from an electronically controlled on, it’s trivial to use our decoder to see how the car was equipped at the factory.

Où chercher le numéro d'identification du véhicule ?

Jaguar places this identifier in several areas to prevent tampering. Some stickers and engravings have “Jaguar” finely printed across them, making it each to spot tampering. Here are some places to check when you’re looking for a car’s VIN.

With the driver’s door open, look for a plate or sticker on the door pillar near the latch. This label has extensive vehicle information, including the VIN. If it’s not there, look at the side of the B pillar, near the door sill. On some older models, this plate is made of a plastic that’s designed to chip apart if any attempt is made to remove it from the vehicle. Be wary of any vehicle that is missing this plate.

Some recent vehicles also have a white VIN sticker on the A-pillar between the door hinges.

If you open the hood, you should see the VIN stamped somewhere on the passenger’s side inner fender or on the center of the firewall. Older models also have a white manufacturer sticker next to one of the hood hinges, near the cowl.

Look inside the trunk. On some models, including the X-Type, the VIN is stamped into the passenger’s side fender or floor pan.

Guide complet du décodeur VIN

Now that you have the VIN number, what can you learn from it? Here’s an overview of what each digit stands for.

The first three digits make up the World Make Identifier. The first digit is the manufacturing location. This is “S” for Great Britain. The second digit is the manufacturer. On recent cars, this is “A” for Tata. The third character is the brand division, which is “D” or “J” on late model vehicles.

The fourth digit is the market and safety system. You should see one of these letters here for American market cars:

D- four airbags

E, J- United States

W- Front, side and curtain airbags

You may come across other characters on cars from neighboring countries. B, G and X are used on Canadian market cars, while P, R, T and Y are used on Mexican market cars.

The fifth digit is the gearbox: “A” for automatic and “B” for manual.

The sixth and seventh digits are the model and body type:

The eighth digit is the engine and market. Here are the codes you’ll see on modern American market Jaguars:

The ninth digit is used to check the authenticity of the VIN.

The tenth digit is the year. This alternates between numbers and letters, excluding characters that have similar shapes. For example, there is no “0” or “O” used for the year. 2000s models used numbers, while 2010 and later models use letters.
