Enter the 17-character VIN of a Vauxhall Astra and the free decoder reads the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture, with no registration. Our data covers 30 versions, among them the Astra Estate, Astra CC, Mk II Belmont, Mk III Convertible and Mk IV, with model years from 1979 to the present because the Astra is still built. Body styles in the data are Hatchback, Estate, Sedan, Convertible, Coupe and Wagon, and power runs from 54 to 280 hp.
A VIN does not contain accidents, mileage, theft or previous owners, and that information comes from a paid vehicle history report. On a car you are looking at, compare the VIN on the car with the one in the registration papers, and check that the model year and body style match what the seller says.

A VIN is built from six parts, and each one says something about the vehicle. Our guides explain how to read it and what it can and cannot tell you.
Enter the 17-character VIN and see the factory basics in seconds.
Our data lists model years 1979 - present across 30 versions of the Vauxhall Astra. The VIN of a particular car shows its model year in the 10th character.
30 versions, in 6 body styles, with power up to 280 hp. Use the VIN to confirm which one you have.
The decoder gives you the manufacturer, model year and country of manufacture, and characters 4 to 8 of the VIN form the descriptor section. To pin down a version such as the Estate, Mk II Convertible or Mk IV, match the model year from the VIN with the body style and power shown in the registration document.
All 17 characters must be identical, and none of them can be I, O or Q. The 10th character shows the model year and the 11th the plant, so check those against the papers as well. Cars built before 1981 may not carry a 17-character VIN at all.
It will not show accidents, mileage, theft records or the number of owners, because none of that is stored in the VIN. It also cannot tell you the condition of the car or whether the seller's description is accurate.
