The RCZ was Peugeot's 2+2 sports coupé from 2010 to 2015, instantly recognisable by its double-bubble roof. Based on the 308 platform and built by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria, it was offered with 1.6 THP turbo petrol and 2.0 HDi diesel engines, topped by the 270 hp RCZ R. Sports coupés are often driven with enthusiasm, so a VIN check on a used RCZ is a good way to confirm the accident, ownership, mileage, and recall history before you buy.
What you can check
A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique 17-character code that serves as your Peugeot RCZ's fingerprint. Checking your VIN provides crucial information about:
Your RCZ's VIN can be located in several places:
Although the RCZ was built by Magna Steyr in Austria rather than in a Peugeot factory, its VIN still starts with VF3, Peugeot's manufacturer code. Decoding the VIN confirms the engine and version — useful for verifying that a car advertised as an RCZ R really is one.
Every Peugeot RCZ carries a unique 17-character VIN. Here's what each part of the number means — select any section to see the details for your Peugeot RCZ.
Characters 1–3
The first three characters identify who built the vehicle and where.
Characters 4–8
Characters 4–8 hold manufacturer-specific details about the vehicle itself.
Character 9
The 9th character helps confirm the VIN is valid.
Character 10
The 10th character indicates the vehicle's model year.
Character 11
The 11th character identifies the factory where the vehicle was assembled.
Characters 12–17

Who built the Peugeot RCZ?
The RCZ was built under contract by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria. It's still a Peugeot, so its VIN starts with Peugeot's VF3 code and its parts and servicing go through the Peugeot network.
What makes the RCZ R different?
The RCZ R has a 270 hp version of the 1.6 THP engine, a Torsen limited-slip differential, and uprated brakes and suspension. Because it was built in much smaller numbers, check its history and specification especially carefully.
