Yep great engine that 5 pot, i do miss my e320 cdi with its I6 from time to time, I love a big derv. Clatter clatter truck type noise on a cold morning haha
I'd like to say Yes lol, But he wanted a Genuine MB battery and the Slave battery i took up to him by the side of the road to jump off was too large to fit in.
He doesn't use the car much so was taking it back home to store for a month until it gets its mot and service at MB Colchester doh...
Yes i was Surprised! I took a Large Slave battery 019 and some Heavy Duty leads to jump off handy having your own Parts business lol ;) , I do love the way Merc's have a Earthing post to save jumping direct off the Battery.
The car started on the 1st crank :)
I just had to Jump start my Father in Law's 2010 c200,
There i was expecting the large battery in tobe in the boot..... Only to find once id lifted the Black plastic cover to find a Aux battery the size of a Motorcycle one lol
The Main battery was under the Bonnet in front of the Windscreen...
My Dads accountant had a 2.3 16v when they 1st came out , It ended up snapping a chain, the later 2.5's were duplex linked i believe.
I've never a had a Cosworth 190, i've and 2 w201's altoghther 2.0 carb, a 2.6 I6 which went like the wind (for its day)
SBC "Hold" is great, When you pull up to a Stop, Depress the Break Pedol, SBC (HOLD) will come on and it will hold the car in that position on the brakes untill you depress the accelerator to move off.
I wonder how much brighter they are generally than the normal Halogen?
Normal headlight bulbs are 60/55w if you up grade these to more powerful variations its illegal so it does make me wonder.
