tow rating
Hows it going...
Okay last spring I sold my W203 coupe for a BMW Z4... and well... now its time for the wifeys car to be replaced...
I was thinking of a W202, mid 90's (98ish) with low milage... or inexpensive Kompressor if i can find one.
QUESTION IS: what (if any) is the maximum tow rating for a W202? i have a 3 person Seadoo I tow around during summer months. prob doesnt weigh much more than 800 lbs.
Wifey has a Geo Prizm that tows it with out struggle (except up hill freeway ramps) other than that, no issues accelerating or stopping.
Can it be done with a W202? i have seen hitches on one or two... but what does MB recommend?
Thanks!
