VIN numbers
Car serial codes
VIN numbers is a common redundancy—VIN already stands for vehicle identification number, making "numbers" unnecessary.
Still, the phrase is widespread in speech and writing: I need to check the VIN numbers on both cars.
A VIN is the unique 17-character code assigned to every motor vehicle, used for registration, insurance, and tracking history.
