WDC = Normally it would be written WDB for Werk (Factory) DaimlerBenz, but since the number of produced C-Classes exceeded 1 Million, the aren't enough 'free' number at the end of your VIN left.. so they changed the last letter of the factoryname.
203 = stands for the type of MB, in this case meaning C-Class Sedan.
076 = is the engine and car type identification number. 0= Sedan, (2 would be estate-model) and 76 for the 55 AMG
2R = is the code of the factory your car has been produced in. In your case its East London.
153516 = this is your individual car production number.
Hope this helps

East London is of course a city in South Africa where the DC factory is located.
I think the weights refer to the weight bore by each axle
