Enter the 17-character VIN of the car Porsche Cayenne into the free decoder and it tells you the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture. In our database the car Porsche Cayenne covers 2002 - present. It has 8 versions in total, is offered as SUV and lists power of 640 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 Porsche Cayenne: 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.
