I'm not 100% certain, and someone may correct me, but I think "Power 85" means that the engine develops 85kw/h - German manufacturers tend to quote power in kilowatts/hour - and that equates to 115bhp (I think).
Questions about my decoded VIN
I had someone decode my VIN number for me just so I could cool my nerves and make sure my car is exactly as I ordered it. However, I have a couple of things that are bothering me on it. First what does
"Power 85" mean?
And also, "Gearbox MECH" does mean manual, right?
In case you want to see it, here's the whole thing...
