Specification reference from cardata.wiki. A question mark means a year boundary is missing from the source, not that production continues. An empty field means the source did not provide that value. Confirm the fitted engine, transmission and equipment against the car’s documents. How specification matching works.

Reading your BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI result

These model-code examples apply to BMW VINs beginning WBA, WBS, WBX or WBY. Other formats are checked against the available source data.

A model code can identify a family

For the supported European BMW format, characters 4–5 identify a model family in our decoder. Some codes also narrow the chassis generation. A family match does not identify every engine, gearbox or factory option.

A generation is not a build year

Our decoder does not read position 10 as a year for WBA, WBS, WBX and WBY VINs. If the exact year is missing, use the registration document or build label to select the right year in Refine. North American formats, including 5UX, use a different year rule.

Check the body style before choosing specifications

A 3 Series sedan, Touring and Gran Turismo can share a model-family name while using different bodies and specifications. Match the chassis and body to your car before using a variant from the catalog. The listed variants are alternatives, not your vehicle’s equipment list.

These are supported pattern examples, not a complete list of VIN formats or a manufacturer build record. A matching model family does not confirm an individual car’s trim.

How we match sources and handle missing data. For US-market vehicles, compare NHTSA’s VIN decoder and VIN-specific recall lookup. For other markets, confirm campaigns with the manufacturer or an authorised repairer.

Using the BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI specifications

Start with the car’s year, body and engine, then compare the matching row. Several variants may share a model name while differing in power, transmission or drive layout. If the advert conflicts with the registration or manufacturer documents, resolve the mismatch before relying on the specifications. A VIN lookup can help narrow the comparison, but does not replace a build record or inspection.

BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI VIN FAQ

What can a BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI VIN lookup show?+
It can return available vehicle details and related model data. A catalog variant list does not prove the exact engine, gearbox or factory equipment fitted to your car. Recall campaigns are model-level matches, not confirmation of an outstanding repair for your VIN.
Where should I check the BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI identification number?+
Compare the number on the registration document with the vehicle’s identification markings. Common locations on modern vehicles include the windscreen base and a door-jamb label, but the owner’s manual is the reference for the correct location on your version.
What do the BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI dates in this catalog mean?+
The source lists years 2012–? across 16 variants. A question mark means a year boundary was not supplied. These are catalog dates, not a verified production history or an individual vehicle’s build date.
Is the BMW 1 Series Coupe (E82) LCI VIN check free?+
Yes. The available decode, specifications and model-level results are free without an account. An optional paid history report may contain additional records depending on the car and market.
