    Can somebody help decode a W123 (recently purchased) with the following VIN? I tried the Russian site but got very limited information. Thanks in advance.

    This is what I got. I am just confused because I thought W123 300D US models started 1977 while this (based on the CR) is 1976. Also, there is very little information, or is that the case for much older mercs?

    Data for model

    VEHICLE TYPE: Car
    MODEL NAME: 300 D USA
    ENGINE: 617912 10 075540
    TRANSMISSION: 00 552196
    BODY: 06,600
    ORDER NUMBER: 0728397315
    LIGHTS: HELLA
    INTERIOR COLOR: 005
    PAINTS: 870

    Maybe a typo error on the part of LTO?

    Would you believe that my W124 300E has 4 cylinders on its original CR.

    Let's wait for Senyor Bob (Benzmizer) to chime in.
