EPS come with W212 body.
That said, MB makes so many different models for so many market, that would somebody come with W211 equipped with EPS, I would not even blink my eye

There were next to no electric power steering installations in 2003 ... the start date of the W211.

Probably you can find the power steering fluid reservoir under your hood.

No electric power steering in the W211 chassis as far as I know.
