Find it in the table below, even without your VIN.

If you talk to Mercedes Benz enthusiasts, they refer to their Mercedes Benz by the chassis number (model code). If you are wondering what chassis number you have, look at the two tables below.

Body style will start with a W if it is a saloon, sedan/wagon, V for limousine, C for coupe, S for Estate, VF for Pullman, R for a roadster, and W / X for SUV. Often most people use the W### designation.
