Plate returns: 2005. Note that the movie is meant to take place from 2002-2003, so this is historicallly inaccurate. -- Last edit: 2023-09-03 15:22:41

Z2 ◊ 2023-09-03 14:03	Plate doesn't come back to anything anymore, so can't get the VIN for this one. Sorry. Otherwise I would have already posted it. I'm pretty sure that these would have been made in Germany though, not ZA. Here's the VIN for a similar Australian delivered 2005 C55 though: WDC2030762R177866 -- Last edit: 2023-09-06 01:32:50
dhill_cb7 ◊ 2023-09-03 15:15	Thanks no problem. The 11th digit being an R is ZA assembled. Here is a guide for MB assembly hidden in the VIN. The WMi will always appear German.
