Site to determine build date / location??? S70 99

posted by  someone claiming to be Gramps on  Tue Nov 14 01:42 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I am looking for a website where I can plug in my VIN and determine build date, build location, any other useful information.

To find out where the car was built, you must look at the 7th number FROM THE END, on your VIN plate/sticker.

If it is a "1", then your car was built in Torslanda, Sweden. If it is a "2" then it was in Ghent, Belgium. If it was "3" (I seriously doubt it) then at Halifax, Nova Scotia.

If you look in the archives here, I did post (many months ago) a full table where you can decipher all the info that a VIn can give you (engine type, model type, transmission type, emmissions, etc.).

Yes, some 1993/94/95/96 and a few 97s were assembled in Halifax. I do not think any S/V70s ever were.

The Halifax plant did not built cars; Volvo shipped the parts in kits and tey were put together at that plant (along with quite a few 940s!).

Build date is printed on the sticker inside the drivers side door.
