Specification reference from cardata.wiki. A question mark means a year boundary is missing from the source, not that production continues. An empty field means the source did not provide that value. Confirm the fitted engine, transmission and equipment against the car’s documents. How specification matching works.
Reading your Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate (W203) result
These examples apply to supported Mercedes-Benz VINs with a numeric model code in positions 4–6. US-market letter-based formats are decoded through other available sources.
Read the numeric model code
In the supported European layout, positions 4–6 contain the Baumuster model code. Our decoder uses it to identify a model family and, when mapped, a chassis generation. The shorter code does not establish all engine or equipment details.
Position 10 is not always a year
Our decoder leaves the year unknown for the European numeric-code layout instead of treating position 10 as a model year. Some US-market Mercedes-Benz VINs use the North American year format. A generation date range is not the individual car’s build date.
Use the build record for factory options
A C-Class or E-Class name can cover several bodies, engines and production generations. Compare the chassis, year and body with the registration documents. For an exact equipment list, ask for the manufacturer’s build record or data card; the open specification catalog does not replace it.
| Code | Model family | Mapped generation |
|---|---|---|
| 203 | C-Class | W203 |
These are supported pattern examples, not a complete list of VIN formats or a manufacturer build record. A matching model family does not confirm an individual car’s trim.
How we match sources and handle missing data. For US-market vehicles, compare NHTSA’s VIN decoder and VIN-specific recall lookup. For other markets, confirm campaigns with the manufacturer or an authorised repairer.
Using the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate (W203) specifications
Start with the car’s year, body and engine, then compare the matching row. Several variants may share a model name while differing in power, transmission or drive layout. If the advert conflicts with the registration or manufacturer documents, resolve the mismatch before relying on the specifications. A VIN lookup can help narrow the comparison, but does not replace a build record or inspection.
