I am looking at a W116 it is a European market car. The VIN is 11602812038164.
If anyone on this forum could decode it for me I would appreciate it.
I have tried various decoding sites with no luck. I have also search posts on this topic on this site.
Thank You

116.028 = 350SE
12 = left-hand drive (1), automatic (2)

038164 = sequential body number (the 6.9 had a separate sequence)

That's all there is in the W116 chassis number.
You can get additional details from the codes on the options plate under the hood.
1993 "Pearl Blue" W124 280TE
1988 "Arctic White" W124 200T
1979 "Icon Gold" W116 450SE
