what does W203 stand for

just a quick question: what does each part of this stand for??? Im guessing the last 2 in W202 stands for version 2, and W203 the 3 stands for version 3; but what about the remaining stuff??

Just curious.

W=wagen or "car" in German; the 202 vs 203 is along the lines your thinking, just an internal number, the next C will be the 204.

Try this for some bedtime reading. At one time, the codes were sort-of, kind-of sequential, but have evolved as you can see from this history.
