Enter the 17 characters of a Mitsubishi Colt VIN and the decoder returns the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture. Our data for the Colt spans model years 1978 to 2023 and 10 versions, from the Colt I (A150) to the Colt VII, with hatchback and convertible bodies and power from 55 to 160 hp. Because 17-character VINs are used for cars built since 1981, a very early Colt may carry a number the decoder cannot read.
A VIN does not contain accidents, mileage, theft or owners, so the decoder cannot speak to any of that. That information comes from a paid vehicle history report. When you are looking at a car, compare the VIN on the car with the one in the registration papers, and check that the model year and country fit what the seller tells you.

Our data lists model years 1978 - 2023 across 10 versions of the Mitsubishi Colt. The VIN of a particular car shows its model year in the 10th character.
10 versions, in 2 body styles, with power up to 160 hp. Use the VIN to confirm which one you have.
The decoder gives you the model year from the 10th character, which helps you place the car among versions such as the Colt VI (Z30) or the Z30 facelift 2008. For the exact version name, check the registration document, since the free decoder reads only manufacturer, year and country.
Read all 17 characters on the car and match them one by one against the registration papers. Letters I, O and Q are never used in a VIN, so if one appears, a character has probably been misread or copied wrongly.
It will not show accidents, mileage, theft records or previous owners, because none of that is stored in the VIN. It also does not read out the body style or the exact power of an individual car, even though our Colt data covers hatchback and convertible bodies and 55 to 160 hp.
