Steve, the car looks great. Be sure to profile it on your website as I am sure that its mods will lead to many future sales.

drex, the station is not for family matters but for parts hauling...kind of sucks with the Vito on the autobahn...with a minor 140kmh max...

Steve, two things...1) my COMAND doesn't start with MBenzNL & 2) when is the next US trip scheduled?

Was your Comand new or refurbished? I don't think he puts MBenzNL on the new units because mine doesn't have it either.

I'm pretty sure it's a refurbished. I'm also thinking that this is a very recent mod...when he got back home after the last trip. If (operative word) Mark's unit doesn't have it, we can be sure it's brand new.

the US comands we install are new - the euro ones are refurbished...euro comands usually have the MBenzNL start up logo - US comands have a mercedes benz start up logo.

That's the nicest C-wagong I've seen, ver sharp. I didn't even realize that they allow cars in the Netherlands, I though everyone rode bicycles. Very generous of the government to allow cars to drive faster than bicycles.

You are allowed to own a car in the Netherlands, but ONLY if you have at least 2 bicycles in the garage! :p

Very generous, indeed...

Brodie, I'm thinking this is a semi-sarcastic post or you just don't realize who Steve (MBenzNL) is. He is definitely not a "newbie" on here, but he just never had a w203 until now. Since you're indicated as a "junior member" only in here since October, I'm figuring you haven't really read up on Steve yet.

Do a search for all his (MBenzNL) posts and you'll get an idea .

No problem. I was saying "sarcastic" in a good way (as many people know that Steve is the man when it comes to OEM replacements/swaps).

Yeah, I saw that you were a newbie so you I figured you didn't realize how prominent the guy is on this board. Regardless, if you want to do an OEM add-on, you can also check out his website http://www.mbenznl.com/

I really like my C250D - I still do...but there is no way I am leaving the C270CDI at home to drive the C250D...that car is just...PERFECT.
