The VIN number of the Peugeot 2008 is located on the metal plate under the front windshield. If you need to take a rubbing of the VIN, you will have to remove the plastic trim panel beneath the windshield. The Peugeot 2008 is a compact SUV from Peugeot, with dimensions of 4312 mm in length, 1785 mm in width, 1545 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2612 mm. This model is equipped with a 1.2-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine across all variants, delivering a maximum power of 100 kW and a peak torque of 230 Nm. The engine reaches its maximum power at 5500 rpm and its maximum torque between 1750 and 3500 rpm.
Where is the VIN number generally located on the Peugeot 2008? I have to say, as someone who frequently tinkers with cars, the primary location is definitely at the bottom of the windshield on the driver's side, near the wipers. You can clearly see that 17-digit string from outside the car through the glass. After opening the hood, there might also be a small label near the firewall or on the hood itself, which serves as a backup location. Sometimes, there's a nameplate on the inner frame of the door pillar when you open the door. I recommend that owners locate this spot when buying the car or during maintenance—don't rush to start working, as it's super important for vehicle identification—things like anti-theft, maintenance records, and insurance claims all rely on it. The location is designed to be this obvious for easy reading. I personally check it every quarter to avoid label wear or dirt affecting its use. If you find it hard to read, go to the dealership immediately to get it replaced or cleaned—don't delay your daily driving.
