How do I find out the name of my interior color?

How do I find out the name of my interior color? The car is a 230E from 1983. It was shipped to the states from Europe. Now its a parts car. The plasticy bits in the vehicle match my palomino 300D but the seats and carpet are all lighter, and not sunbleached but definitely a different color though still in the tannish palomino range. They are in great shape and I'd like to sell them but I don't know what name to offer them under. Can I find out from the vin? is there a color code?
Thanks for your time,
Jeff

Jeff, you can try this link to the MB Club of Russia's Vin De-coder. Check the box for the 'detailed' or 'long' (I forget which) report; your color names/codes should be there. http://www.mbclub.ru/mb/vin/?lng=eng

Strong possibility. I was confused my the parchment palomino issue for a while. Turns out I have parchment carpet and door panels. Just a touch lighter than the palomino, and apparently not as prone to turning pink.
