Start by typing the VIN of your car FSO Polonez into the box; the decoder reads the code and reports the maker, the model year and the country of origin. In our database the car FSO Polonez covers 1977 - 2002. It has 3 versions in total, is offered as Hatchback and lists power of 103 hp. The decoder reads the world manufacturer identifier in characters 1 to 3, the model year in character 10 and the plant in character 11 where one is coded.
The VIN identifies the car but does not describe its life. Records of accidents, mileage, theft or owners have to be looked up separately from the decoding. A quick test for the model FSO Polonez: the 10th character encodes the model year, so it should fit the year the seller states. Also remember that I, O and Q never occur in a genuine VIN.
