How to find if my ML350 has Driver Assistance Package?

I am zeroing on buying a 2014 or 2015 Mercedes-Benz M-Class. I have already done plenty of research online and I am very particular that the car which I buy must have "Driver Assistance Package". it seems its optional package for all 2015 trims. I want to know how to make sure if the car which I am purchasing has this package ( or in genearl any other package ). I do not want to trust on description provided by dealer. when I bought my last Cadillac, the flyer pasted on the car was saying AWD but it was actually a FWD and when I asked dealer.. he just said.. sorry.. it is incorrectly printed. so I do not want to ask dealer or even trust what they say. I want to know what to look for during test drive to find out if it has "Driver Assistance Package" . Thanks for your input Monica

(2) 2015 Mercedes-Benz M-Class ML 400 4MATIC - 4JGDA5GB3FA507086

Once I posted VIN number above.. it takes me too VIN decoder which has lots of good info but still it does not clearly says. It talks about pre-safe but as I see in the specs posted at mbusa site.. the package should have all these four features:
Driver Assistance Package Requires Premium Package
• DISTRONIC PLUS® with PRE-SAFE® Brake
• Active Blind Spot Assist and Active Lane Keeping Assist

(Please note that I am particular that it has "active" blind spot assist and "active" lane keeping assist.

Question vin info - window sticker

Is there a way to learn which options did the car come with?
I am getting a off-lease car and have no idea as to which options does it have.
Can anyone assist? the vintool does not help as it shows all possible options that it could have but does not identify those that it came with...

And the VIN Decoder isn't accurate, it lists options I don't have.
