Alec - I cannot find 131 anywhere on the data plate; where do you see it? (took another look and see 05131; could this be something not interior colors???)

How could it have been black? I am the original owner and it came from RBM, the Atlanta MB dealer. I have known this car from the first day. Do you think it came from Germany in black MB tex and the Atlanta dealer changed out the seats? What about the door cards which are palomino?

Confused. Also I cannot find anything near palomino in all the MB tex numbers contained in the link. (Looked again and see 134 in your chart)

Also wondering about the VIN - do any of the VIN numbers mean color?

Thanks for your help.
