Hi Guys I have been looking at a 2002 230slk as previous thread, but reading your forum I have seem W212, R172, can you tell what type of car have I been looking at and what do these numbers mean.:dk:

The numbers are the MB internal codes for the models.

W is a saloon, R a two seater (or possibly a convertible?) and S an estate. The number part is the first three digits of the chassis number which identifies the model.

A 2002 SLK is an R170

Put 'Mercedes model codes' into your favourite search engine for more information than you can handle ;)
 
Cheers Stratman that cleared that up very nicely
