For the UK model, yes, but if you have a US model that wouldn't make great sense. The point here is that Haynes doesn't currently have a manual available, in the US, for the US model.

Sometimes you have to be happy with whatever you can get. You guys in the US are fortunate to have manuals available from MBNA for your North American delivered Benzes. In Australia, we having nothing specifically for our cars. For my 300TE I make do with the MBNA W124 chassis and body manuals and the M103 engine manual, a Haynes W124 manual and a Brooklands (I think) W124 manual. By way of reading all of these and trying to identify the (large number of) differences, I then attempt to work out how something comes apart and hopefully goes back together. For my 350SLC I make do with MBNA W107 chassis and body and M116/117 engine manuals and a Haynes W107 manual. For the 190E in addition to a Haynes manual, I have only an MBNA W201 chassis and body manual but cannot obtain an M102 manual. For this I rely on a copy in our club library.

I believe the CDROMS cover everything in the manuals (and more). I will have to investigate these one day but they tend to be expensive. Then again, the printed ones aren't cheap. The last ones I bought (for the 190E) were around $50 AUD for the Haynes and $180 AUD for the W201 chassis and body!
