Year of Construction/Year of Registration

The information "from which year" a car is, is required in the catalog and price lists for most spare parts when ordering. The construction date of your car can usually and fairly precisely be deciphered via the chassis number.

Please note that the first registration in the vehicle documents is not necessarily identical or even close to the actual construction date: For example, a car may have been parked as a demonstration vehicle at a dealer for a few weeks or even months, or it was converted into a mobile home or fire engine by a special company . Under certain circumstances, the old vehicle registration document was also replaced if it was lost and an estimated first registration date was entered.
