1998 model is 1998 model regardless of when registered. You can find professional translators online to help you with the importer.

Good luck.

1992.5 400E W124
My 400E is a late 1992 and came to my country as a 1993, it was auctioned in japan on january 2006.

Yanase is a HUGE importer of MB's into Japan, if you are dealing with them directly I doubt they would try playing cheap tricks.

BTW my car dosen't have any plate that points out to the production year, I got the production year by running the VIN through a russian website. is the plate near the top of the radiator indicating to the production year somehow?
