MG GS stamped VIN number is located under the rear seats. MG GS: MG-GS, meaning Grand-SUV, (Chinese name: MG GS) is a high-performance SUV that SAIC Motor Corporation has meticulously developed by leveraging its accumulated strengths in styling design, power handling, off-road performance, comfortable driving experience, and intelligent internet-connected applications. It was officially launched on March 18, 2015, setting new benchmarks for mid-size SUVs in terms of performance, aesthetics, and value with its all-new powertrain, British-inspired design, and advanced technological features.

VIN Number: The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique 17-character alphanumeric code assigned to each vehicle, used to identify the manufacturer, engine, chassis number, and other specifications. To avoid confusion with the numbers 1, 0, and 9, the letters "I", "O", and "Q" are not used. The 10th character, representing the model year, does not use "I", "O", "Q", "U", "Z", or "0".
As a seasoned car repair technician, I can tell you that the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) stamp for the MG GS can usually be found at the lower part of the driver's side door frame. Open the door, crouch down, and look at the door pillar—there's a small metal plate engraved with a 17-digit code. Sometimes, it might also be located near the front bulkhead of the engine compartment or the firewall. This placement is designed for both safety and easy accessibility, making it convenient for accident inspections or used car transactions. Just a heads-up: if the stamp is worn or covered with dirt, you can wipe it clean with a cloth to ensure it's clearly visible, as this is the vehicle's unique identifier. Don’t worry if you can’t find it right away—if all else fails, check the vehicle manual or visit an MG dealership for quick assistance. And remember, taking a quick look during routine maintenance can save you trouble later.
