Ha de Belgen zijn vertegenwoordigd [:D] Het is een 190 E 1.8 en zoals je begrijpt aan het aantal km's per jaar nog als nieuw. Heeft de airco-optie (nogal zeldzaam in de 1.8 volgens onze Mercedes garage).

Used to have clear turns and black tails until the local police dept (Northern California) decided to ticket my wife on Christmas Eve [:(!]

I notice you're using an aftermarket washable air filter. Does it help your low end? How about fuel economy. I'm currently looking at a 1984 190D with the 2.2 diesel and 5 sp manual. Not bad, but at my elevation (4,500 ft) the naturally aspirated engine has lost a lot of it's zip.

i'm dying to know which offset/rim width would fit the W201 in an
8-Hole 16" wheel... i'm currently on 15x7J

A 16x7.5 8-hole with an ET/offset of 40 would fit. This size I mentioned is from an aftermarket wheel (AT Italia Type 8, found on www.tirerack.com), I have them.

Mercedes had 8-hole 16" wheels on the following cars (that I know of in the US, probably more, but these are the ones I know of): R129, 500E/E500, and W140 (these I know don't fit, because of their offset, its an ET of 51).
