hi taffyboyo,

Was looking for this info myself a while back and came across this from Benzworld.org by member 'jrct9454A' [just to be fair and quote my references properly ..... URL http://www.benzworld.org/forums/w204-c-class/1356680-how-can-i-tell-where-my-2.html]


A-E Sindelfingen
F-H Bremen
J Rastatt
X Graz
T Karmann
M Woking, England (SLR only)
R South Africa

Look for one of these as the 11th digit of your VIN.

The door plate should have a 'Made in <country> note beside the Vin number.

I was able to confirm my findings directly with my dealer also.

Safe Driving

Have a look on the plate on driver side door pillar it will tell you where it was made.
