Hey guys,

I've seen that the W211 is built in all of the following places:

Sindelfingen, Germany
Bremen, Germany
Stuttgart, Germany
Zuffenhausen, Germany
Graz, Austria (by Magna Steyr)

So my question is, how do I know where exactly was my car built? I read the data plate next to the door and it says "manufactured in Germany" but I would like to know where exactly.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated

Thanks!

Letter preceding VIN serial # (last six digits) depicts factory:

A-D = Sindelfingen
F-G-H = Bremen
X = Graz

Really? Mine is an X ... shouldn't the plate read Made in Austria?

Assembly starts in Germany (i.e.: bodies). For the most part 4matics are completed at Graz but that is not to say they do not also assembly rear wheel drive from time to time.

OK.. I have the 4Matic so makes sense that Magna Steyr assembles them.

Where did you find the info stating W211 cars being built at the indicated places? My understanding is that E-class and S-class all come today from Sindelfingen (see www.jesmb.de for location info), excluding India & China and similar more or less external factories.

Sindelfingen and Bremen on the list are the only German sites that so actual production of cars. Stuttgart Untertürkheim makes engines etc.

Thank you!

It seems that mine was built in Sindelfingen then. It has a B.

Thanks for the link, however it seems that it only works for cars that are older than MY2005. Mine is a 2009.

It works with younger cars today, but unlikely with with a very fresh car.
