I don't see any 201's ever on the road's here. It's like I have the only one. I live in a city with 2 million people too. I see a lot of newer MB's but no 201's

I want your light's.

Comment's are more than welcome. I'm also new here. So hi!

Here's a video of my friend Travis and I driving the car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-axuegbvkk
Very nice. Where did you find the Zender kit?

It was put on the car when it was new. The car was painted & the body kit was installed by Mercedes Benz of San Antonio. They used to have a guy working there who customized the car's when they were new. There's a limited edition tag on the drivers front door with his name and the date of completion. "Ron Walker" "5/16/85" "#2" The tag is chrome. I went looking for another tag and found that one. It says in the owners manual "Paint work, Champagne Metallic #473"

I wish I could find that guy and have a cup of coffee with him. I'd sure like to pick his brain about my car.

Edit: I have yet to find another 201 painted the same color as mine. I've only found a few other MB's the same color.

Looking good. I had an oppurtunity to buy a Zender kit recently but turned it down. In hindsight, I probably should've picked it up.

Welcome. Did you buy that from the Craigslist ad from last week for parts? Those gold wheels look familiar.

Looks good with the Carlssons. You might want to get the correct sized tires before lowering.
