Aston Martin VIN Decoder

Aston Martin has built grand tourers since 1913, and now builds them in Gaydon, Warwickshire. The DB5 made it famous on screen in 1964.

Built before 1981?

Can I decode a Aston Martin VIN from before 1981?

Not yet. A Aston Martin built before 1981 used a shorter, manufacturer-specific number rather than the 17-character standard, and our classic decoder does not cover Aston Martin so far. Every VIN searched there is recorded, and the makes people look up most are the ones we add next.

Reading a Aston Martin VIN

What do the first three characters of a Aston Martin VIN mean?

Every modern Aston Martin opens with SCF. Because production runs are small and well documented, the VIN of a special edition often matches a car whose whole history is already known to owners’ clubs.
