Mercedes W212 E220 CDI T-Model Avantgarde (2013 facelift) - equipment question

[Kess]

Hello, I am looking to buy Mercedes E220 CDI T-Model W212 (2013 facelift) Avantgarde. After checking the VIN I am not sure whether Avantgarde equipment on this vehicle includes the following - Blind Spot Assist, Lane Keeping Assist and Distronic. The VIN number is WDD2122021A928621. Many thanks in advance.

I was wondering if some of them might come as part of 'EQUIPMENT PACKAGE FOR AVANTGARDE VEHICLES'? Also - is 'ATTENTION ASSISTS' standard on all W212 models? Your assistance is much appreciated.

When I was trying to find the standard specification for our car I Googled for a sales brochure from the year that the car was sold. I found a PDF copy of the UK brochure quite quickly.
As far as I know, the features you are looking for were usually part of a 'Driver Assistance Pack' - which I would expect to be an option.
'Attention Assist' was standard on UK cars - a Coffee Cup symbol on the speedo display shows it's active. It is supposed to alert you if you start to drop off to sleep - it's never done anything on our car...

 

[Kess]

Thank you, will pay attention to that 'Coffee Cup' symbol you have mentioned. As much as I can gather this vehicle almost certainly does not have 'Driver Assistance Pack'.

 

[aybracers]

According to my copy of the March 2013 E class Price list you could have either Lane Tracking Package - Code 22P for £735 or the full Driver Assistance Pack - Code 23P for £2345. The latter included everything in 22P plus Distronic adaptive cruise control. Both were options on all models including E63.

 

[Kess]

Much appreciated, it seems that there is a lot more to find out about my newly acquired Merc. I am also not sure if some other options are standard or not - rain sensor and side mirror puddle lights. So quite a lot of homework to be done...

if not listed its not there.

standard

 

[Kess]

Your input is much appreciated, I did find out that my E220 indeed has ATTENTION ASSIST, RAIN SENSOR and SIDE MIRROR PUDDLE LIGHTS.

 

[Not_Anumber]

How did you find these features are present if they did not show up decoding the VIN ?

 

[Kess]

I honestly do not know, maybe these features come as standard with Avantgarde trim so they are not listed individually. And as member Mioba stated - some of the features are standard with all the models. I do agree that this information should be much simpler to get hold of - there are also differences in certain trim equipment from market to market. A bit confusing when you start researching.
