Look up your Mercedes-Benz

Example — from a real report

Descriptions use Mercedes-Benz's factory terminology. A typical report lists 60–150 codes.

Buying a used Mercedes

Verify the spec in the advert against the factory record — matching numbers, original paint, and whether that AMG Line package is genuine.

Selling with confidence

A documented factory spec supports your asking price — desirable options like Burmester sound or AIRMATIC are worth showing, not claiming.

Restoration & parts

Order the right parts first time and return a project car to its exact original specification, down to the trim code.

Insurance & valuation

Agreed-value policies and specialist valuations often ask for proof of factory options — the build sheet is that proof.

Which Mercedes-Benz models are covered?

Factory build data is available for A-Class through S-Class, coupés and cabriolets, AMG models, EQ electric models and the G-Class. Coverage varies by model year — the free preview confirms availability for your exact VIN before you pay.

Is this the same as the Mercedes-Benz datacard?

No — the datacard is Mercedes-Benz’s internal record of your build, usually shared as a raw code list. A build sheet contains the same core factory data — options, paint and trim codes — delivered as a PDF in minutes at a fraction of the cost.

What are Mercedes-Benz option codes?

Every factory option is recorded as a three-digit code (plus P-codes for packages) on the vehicle datacard. The build sheet lists each code with Mercedes-Benz’s own description. Because they're recorded on the build sheet, it's the definitive way to prove a genuine factory specification.

Do I need the VIN, or will the UK reg work?

Either works. For UK-registered cars the reg is enough — we resolve the VIN automatically. For imports or unregistered vehicles, use the 17-character VIN.

Is service history available for Mercedes-Benz?

Yes — a digital service record PDF is available as a +£5.00 add-on for UK and European market Mercedes-Benzs.

Where does the data come from?

Directly from official manufacturer build records, keyed to your VIN — the same data a franchised Mercedes-Benz dealer sees. It can't be edited by a seller and doesn't rely on paperwork surviving.
