Cool old mb catalog that came w/ my 107

this came with all the repair receipts and junk from the original owner. 92' era. Has everything you would ever need for a MB. Has anyone ever seen this or ordered anything from this company. I wonder if their still around? I did find the chrome 15x7 rims that are on my 107. $299 each. 4 Chrome star center caps. $170. Check the fashion statement the cover girl is throwin down. Acid Washed at its finest. Funny part is thats exactly what my wifes Glamour Shot phot from BITD looks like - Same big ass hair and same AW shirt! Hilarious. Just thought id share.

.



Adsit has a less than complimentary reputation, according to most. Just search it.

Yeah, still around.

Mercedes Benz Parts & Accessories - Adsit Company Inc.

I've dealt with them a couple of times and never had any problems, but if you do a search on the forum you'll find some opinions of them.

Never tried them because prices were higher than MB sometimes. Later I learned their reputation and would never use them. Like K&K. You can get the parts from MB for less.

Adsit was around before the internet took over so you have to give them some credit. Some of you folks might not know what it was like before the ubiquitousness of the internet, it took for ever to find euro specific part. My old man had a hell of a time finding some parts and adsit was there, they've been around a lot longer than some of the internet companies.

So was K&K. I used to get their catalogues on a regular basis. That does not excuse them from gouging customers and providing poor customer service. Of course there are two sides to all complaints.

Never heard of K&K but the internet has put a lot of old suppliers out of business. I have receipts for my car from the 90s from adsit. I just mean you have to give props to the old suppliers even if they are overpriced and misinformed.

My aunt can get me parts from the same company that supplies the suppliers so I am over that scene. It is just to give a throwback to the people who were around before all these new suppliers showed up. My car has been in the family since 1996 so I do know about finding parts before the internet took over.
