88BHP
Automatic gearbox
Green pullman interior
Blaupunkt radio
Color: weizengelb.
Green dashboard
New engine and gearbox
ACC climate control: didn't work anymore so changed it for a "standard" heating system from a european model.
I'm wondering if it would be possible if i can find back the original owners of my car as he was delivered in the USA when he was manufactured.
There is less to go on: I only have a key with letters on it saying:
"lee's keys u village": does anybody know what this means ?
Kind regards,
Bart

Previous owner information is usually not available from MB.
Some states have ways to request this data (if it was ever registered within that state) for a fee = money, and frequently it is incomplete = covering only a few years.
You could spend thousands of US-dollars for little or no useful data, and/or potentially arouse (NEGATIVE) interest from government agencies with unknown results.
