A “Datacard” for your vehicle should be supplied with every new delivery however; if you do not have a copy (i.e.: purchased used) I or any MB dealer can readily supply a print out free of charge. Basically equipment and paint codes, engine and transmission #s, order #, and delivery date. View sample:

Vmi?
Is this a part of the VMI? is it possible to obtain the VMI for a vehicle from any MB dealership outlining the service and campaign/recall history so you can see exactly what has been done and when?
Thank you very much ,I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say your help to all of us is invaluable. These cars we've involved ourselves with are complex,and it's great to know we have an selfish person such as yourself to turn those complexities into something we can understand. Thanks again!!

The Datacard is just that, data about your particular vehicle from the assembly line. You can contact any MB dealership service dept. and they should supply recall/service campaign/repair/maintenance history of your vehicle, just have your VIN handy.

PM your email address and VIN (any model) time permitting I will forward a PDF. Basically equipment and paint codes, engine and transmission #s, order #, and delivery date. View sample:

FYI:
Did some checking and I’m told that MBUSA (1-800-367-6372) will send you a copy of the original MSRP window invoice/sticker inclusive of optional equipment listing, etc. If you encounter any problems let me know. I personally know of someone who retrieved a copy for their ’88 SL a few months back.

Instead, they mailed me a pdf of a "dealer invoice" copy which was quite a bit different from a window sticker. (and was somwhat incomplete on the options)
Certainly doesn't hurt to give them a call though.
