In this video, we can see where the legal chassis number (Vehicle Identification Number = VIN) is located on the Peugeot 5008 MK1: the chassis is located under the hood, near the front right shock absorber mount and is indicated on two lines. It always starts with VVF. The engine number is instead located on the base of the engine block, on a semi-transparent plate placed vertically.

Remember that both the engine number and the chassis number are also listed in the vehicle registration document: the VIN number is listed in section 2 under the letter "E" and is composed of 17 digits, while the engine number is always in the same section under the letter "P.5".
