Thanks very much alpha. Its free but my profile now shows it has expired. Still I got what all was needed and saved it.
This site was open for long in last year. Somehow they have restricted the registration thereafter. Even my account is showing as expire, don't know whether we can create another account using same VIN.

It would be highly appreciated if one could help finding the details from these numbers .

Thank you in advance.

Hello roseline (nice username! :biggrin:)

Both the cars are 2016 manufactured (10th digit) but for the exact month of manufacture, ask your friend to provide the full 19 digit VIN of the cars. The last digit is needed to decode the month.

For all Fords no other site will give you so much of details. This is genuine information !!

The VINs are :

MALBM51BLGM330029
MALBM51BLGM329317
Both the cars are 2016 manufactured
Hey Rose, your query has already answered by Alpha. If your friend gets 19 digit VIN then we can tell you manufacturing month.
If after deconding say you get Month also as same then select the car whose VIN has "330029" number instead of "329317". I guess these are sequential numbers and the later must be more fresh [glasses]

thanks grandrk,
i did search for other sites for information but found etis.ford to be pretty genuine.
Any ways i am waiting for my aspire to get registered and delivered.

seems to be a long queue in the RTO as many people who bought their cars in december 2016 want the registration to be done in January 2017.

Once again thanks for your replies.

regards

Hi GrandRK,
The car ending *330029 indeed sequential and fresh manufactured.

Thanks,

If the last two digits are * and L, it means the car is November manufactured. If I remember correctly, the letter "I" is not used in VIN.

And you are correct, out of the two, MALBM51BLGM330029*L should be picked.

You are correct Alpha. Its November manufactured car. We happened to get one note in car mentioning few details as ...30.11.2016 08:045:00 C7A 330029. (I found it just now in one of the snaps taken yesterday..)

Thanks,

Hi,
My Baleno was allocated recently and when asked about VIN code RM has given me a number 305847 and when I ask for full code he said it will be known once the vehicle arrives.
Can we make out anything from this or this is just a serial number ?

Your RM has given you sequential number in VIN. You won't be able to decode any information out of it. By the way congrats for your Baleno !!
