Does anyone know what the official interior color code #156 is known as? Artichoke Rosette maybe (Tex)? Trying to identify this color as my neighbor just picked up a beautiful '83 Thistle Green 300D Is there a good chart - I have search and not coming up with anything other than World Upholstery/Bud's Benz charts -thanks!

Interior #156 = Dunkelolive... see here for reference http://www.astralsilber.de/ and click on Polsterungen im W123.

I found this site very useful in my search for the meaning of color code 134:

From the site - looks like 156 is dunkelolive

I am pretty jealous - that is my dream color combo!

Thanks, while searching I found the same - dunkelolive meaning dark olive. The silberdistl color is amazing and the interior very unusual to say the least -he scored -bought the car for 3000.00 here in Northern Cal -

I don't know if the codes are the same between the 123s and the 126s but if they are then try this site. They have a section on what all the numbers mean on the plate by the radiator.

I need to get pics of my new wagon up, its this same color scheme.

The only real reason I bought it.
I overpaid considering the amount of work I've put into it so far, but color goes a long way when most of us love these cars mostly for their timeless style anyhow.
