Vin Number Anomaly

[Mr. Freegard]

I read that the only difference between UF11 and UF10 is that the former was marketed outside the United States and Canada. Yet my 1994 SL 400 VIN is JT8UF11. I wish to know if there is not more to this as I do not think this vehicle came into the US after it was purchased by the original owner. Thanx!

Are you talking about UCF10 vs. UCF11? The main difference is that the UCF11 has the problematic air suspension which many (most?) owners eventually convert to steel spring suspensions due to the cost of replacement air struts and related components. Both variations were sold in the U.S.
