I've checked 5-different 500E/E500 data card codes, and NONE have code "471" which is supposedly ASR per the following sites:

Any idea what the code is for ASR for our 500E's ?

Thanks,

Neil,

There is another common code number used for ASR on certain models. I can't find it right now though.

Perhaps no 500E/E500's have a code for ASR because none were produced without ASR. As a result, it's not a "special version".

Looking at some of the other codes, were any European models produced without:
-electric seats
-ACC
-rolltop boxes
-seat heaters
-alarm
-sunroof
-electric steering column

If they were, perhaps that's the answer...
