Hi guys just a quick hello from North Wales, just bought first,and at my age(60!!) possibly my last Merc, a 2001 CLK 200k in Quartz Blue, Two tone grey /blue leather interior, only 42000 on clock and appart from minor wheel marking pretty well immaculate outside, just a couple of marks on drivers seat,belt contact by the looks,which brings me me my first question to you experienced folk out there,how do I identify interior colours(got "build Sheet" in service book but can`t decifer German descriptions,found a few leather dyes offered on net,obviously I need to know what to ask for....Sorry `bout rambling on ...will contact again
Cheers .......Paul
 
Hello and welcome

You can put your VIN number into a website and it will give you a list of options and codes etc (I think in English)

Mercedes-Benz Club Russia | Mercedes-Benz / VIN


I've not done this yet on my own car and I've had it over 2 years but others have used it and it seems to work well.

ooh and at 60 years young I hope you have many more Mercs to come.

Welcome
 
Hi welcome to the best car forum on the net. Very very nice bunch of people on here. Your only 60 i'm sure you will have many more mercs, unless your thinking of defecting to BMW next car :D
