apologies for the rubbish pic - the only one i could find. this is my merc estate, 67,000 miles from new - all the old MOT certificates to back it up. lots of history and lots of car park scars from the last elderly owner - despite the reversing sensor he had fitted! rather nose up at the mo' - front has had new springs just berfore I bought it - but the back hasn't (yet) just got back from 3 weeks in France - 1720 miles of relaxed cool cruising with 3 kids in the back, the last 2 hours back to the ferry far going far too quickly for such a refined old lady but we were very late! managed to find a fab full length roof rack on ebay - will post pics when I get round to taking some. cheers Nick (new boy)

hearing aid beige for the win. chop some coils out of the front and fiddle with the self levelling valve on the back. instant cool. height is controlled from the anti roll bar position, and its real easy to mess with, maybe to the point of manual control from inside the car? i never got round to doing this on mine due to it being written off in a crash. ive got a 5 inch slammed 230e at the mo, but id love another t. ;D

STOP! Like I really needed reminding again about the near-perfect (and big spec - black 7 seat leather anyone?) 123 wagon I narrowly missed this week! Thanks a lot, now I'm crying again. ;D Drama over...nice car kombiwagen.

cheers for the comments guys.... whilst hearing aid beige would be cool, its cream really, but my phone pic doesn't do it justice.
definately needs the ride height sorting - just not sure how big a stick to hit it with - as it's main purpose is as a family holiday wagen for cruising europe in - full of 2 (alleged) grown ups and 3 sprogs and shedlods of stuff , so it needs to be (kind of) useable... ish.... and wheels...... hmm, think that's a thread in its own right.....

How about airbags? Super-low one minute, instant road trip cruiser the next Clear indicators would look fly, too. As for wheels, wires look cash money on W123's

Welcome fellow Newbie 200T Owner! My 200t looks as tough as mike tysons pitbull licking curse word off a stinking nettle due to the dropped in the weeds stance it has. I can still deal with most speed bumps and carry passengers. Deck her! Go for a bit surfer retro cal look. Would look ace on your colour too!
