You cannot always see the correct number from the outside (because the models have similar baese), but from the inside ...

Thus : 203B Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet

Probably several other slightly different models have similar "internal" numbers.

237A Audi TT
237A Audi TT Roadster <-- 237 B ??
237C Audi A5 Coupe
237.D AUDI R8
237E Audi A1
237F Audi R8 V10
237F Audi R8 Spyder <-- 237G ??
237H Audi S5 Coupe

Don't you think?
So open all your models

256 is the Mack Tow Truck
297 is the Mack Mack Dump Truck
281 is the Mack Concrete Mixer

All 3 share the same base and are modeled after the Mack SuperLiner.

I fully agree with you. Obviously, Majorette keeps numbering that way. Why should we catalog the models differently here? VW Cabrio is 203-B, TT Roadster 237-B and the R8 Spyder 237-G. This is how I catalog the cars in my collection too.

But I'm still undecided when it comes to smaller variants such as add-on parts. For example the Jeep Wrangler. 224-A is the version with hard top. But now there is also an open version. Is that also 224-A or already 224-B?

Since only the roof structure has changed, I checked it out.

As expected, the hardtop model says 224A. But the open Wrangler says 224C on the underside of the roll bar. What about B? Was there another variant that I forgot? Maybe a deluxe model?

All MAN TGS trucks show "299F" on their baseplates, but in fact only they all have different numbering:

Lets start look closer:
The Airport Service Truck shows 299L
(while the generic Cabine shows 299F (on all models))

The Snorkel Fire Truck shows (hard to see) 299G

The Garbage Truck shows 299I

Without pictures:
Cement Truck is (the only real) 299F
Petrol Tanker Truck is 299H

So Far:
299-F Cement Truck
299-G Snorkel Fire Truck
299-H Petrol Tanker
299-I Garbage Truck
299-J ..
299-K ..
299-L Airport Service Truck

Still unknown variations are :
- Container Skip Truck (I couldn't find the number myself ...)
- Dump Truck
- Car Transporter
- Box Truck

The #297 Mercedes Benz Zetros is also available with different rear bodies. Are any numbers known here?

recently bought the version as a log transporter. On the underside of the rear frame number R34A is cast. Certainly because the same frame is also used by the log trailer (remorque = trailer in French). I couldn't find any other number.

I also took a look at the Porsche 911 Carrera S. Base number 209K shared by coupe, cabriolet and police version.

The number 209K is cast both on the underside of the roof on the coupe and on the inside of the removable plastic hardtop of the convertible. Since both parts are mutually exclusive I guess Majorette seems to have both models with the same number.
