Data Card
« on: January 08, 2025, 15:00:00 »
Hello,
 Please can someone tell me where I can get a Data card for my 67 250sl UK car.
I have searched through previous threads, but it seems after 2023 they are not available from the previous reliable supplier?
many thanks
Antony

The only supplier is Mercedes Benz. After 2023, some have been directed to MB dealers to order.  I would contact your local MB dealer first.

If they tell you they cannot do it, tell them they can. But you have to be an owner of the car and present proof of ownership.

You can order it from any main dealer but a lot of the staff are sufficiently ignorant that they aren't aware of it.
I order mine over the phone and receive them by email sometimes next day sometimes a few weeks later.
If you're unsuccessfull I can do it for a small admin fee.

Stick, I have tried several dealers here in Australia and yes, they are sufficiently ignorant or just don’t want to waste their time on non-sales activities.

If you are able to provide this service for mine, I would be most happy to compensate you for your time and support. It is an Italian delivered 230SL. Just let me know what details you require and the small admin fee.

You may want to contact the MB Classic Center in California, they would also be able to get you a card from MB archives.
