The locations of the VIN stamping on the Dongfeng Peugeot 2008: 1. In the engine compartment, lift the engine hood, and you will find it on a vertical steel plate at the lower front left side near the windshield; 2. Next to the passenger door frame, visible upon opening the door. The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique 17-character alphanumeric code used to identify a vehicle's manufacturer, engine, chassis number, and other specifications. The Peugeot 2008 is a strategic model introduced to expand Dongfeng Peugeot's lineup of urban compact SUVs. In terms of dimensions, it measures 4159mm in length, 1739mm in width, 1578mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2538mm.
I'm an expert who frequently works on these compact SUVs, and locating the VIN stamp on the Peugeot 2008 is quite straightforward. The primary location is on the driver's side at the base of the windshield—you can clearly see a combination of letters and numbers through the glass. If you need to confirm, open the hood, and you'll find another stamp at the front of the engine bay, such as near the shock absorber tower, which requires a flashlight to see clearly. The VIN is like the car's ID card—without it, buying, selling, or handling insurance becomes troublesome. I've noticed that some cars might hide it along the edge of the door B-pillar; wiping the surface with a damp cloth makes it easier to check. I recommend glancing at it during regular car washes to keep it clean—it can be a lifesaver in case of accidents or transactions. Remember not to scrape it with hard objects to avoid damaging the engraving.
