A VIN of the model Mercedes-Benz W108 is 17 characters long, and the free decoder translates it into manufacturer, model year and country of manufacture. Our records for the model Mercedes-Benz W108 run over 1965 - 1972 and include 2 versions in total. They come as Sedan, with power listed as 200 hp. Decoding gives you the manufacturer (from the first three characters), the model year (10th character) and the country of manufacture. The plant is included if the code carries it.
Keep in mind that a decoded VIN says nothing about a vehicle's past: no accidents, no mileage, no theft flags and no owner list are stored in it. When you look at a car Mercedes-Benz W108, compare the VIN stamped or printed on the vehicle with the one in the registration papers, character by character. A single differing character is a reason to ask questions.
