Manufacturer, model year, country: enter the VIN of the model Daimler 2.8 - 5.3 and the free decoder reads all three from the 17 characters. Here is what we have on the car Daimler 2.8 - 5.3: years 1969 - 1993, body styles Sedan, power 295 hp and 1 versions in total. The decoder reads the world manufacturer identifier in characters 1 to 3, the model year in character 10 and the plant in character 11 where one is coded.
Past damage, odometer values, theft records and the number of owners are not part of a VIN, so no decoder can read them from the code alone. A separate history check is needed for that. On a model Daimler 2.8 - 5.3 you are considering, read the VIN on the car and then the VIN in the documents. They must match exactly, in all 17 characters.
