Yep, that's normal - it shows as 99 when searching and tells you to e-mail qmbh or whatever it is to get confirmation. As per Barzya8 LY7J sounds right, from memory for Avus Silver.

As with yours, its not on the build sticker, but someone has written it in the book. I will try and attach a photo of my build sticker.

As far as the wood interior is concerned, mine has the code nos 5ME which translates to Vavona wood insert amber high gloss.
Mine also does not have the extended leather that Adrian had on his. Check my album photos of interior.
Mine does not have the door arm rest wood capping's either. They are colour matched grey plastic. See photo.
Good luck with sourcing another engine. What is the engine code you need in case I stumble across one.
Regards,
David

Wood is Myrtle - mine also said Vavona and it most definitely is not!

The avus/red FEs have a lower level of extended leather compared to the mauve/purple. They were correspondingly a little cheaper new.

All FEs had plastic painted window switch surrounds from the factory. I upgraded mine to Myrtle all round to break up the colour and it was very effective, I thought. The lower handle shells are NLA though, so mine had the last 3 in the correct shade of grey that I could get, but retains purple on the driver's door as the one they thought they had turned out not to be on the shelf in Germany....
