Thanks,

I was just reading about this on a site about vin #'s. Apparently the vin on the firewall is used as the 'real' vin in europe. Given this statement it might be normal for it to be different and it might be the one that you should use on your insurance. I'm going to check the firewall vin here too and see if it's different.
btw... I'm looking for info on my WDB1231301A173094 1984 manual 300d- european. If anyone can shed some light, my husband needs to repair it's starting hard and we want to get a service manual.
