I have the 230 and love it! I would suggest checking out the forum sponsors.
a few i can think of:
http://www.mbenznl.nl/ <--- He's also a member 'mbenznl'
http://www.formymercedes.com

Here is a good place to start:
https://mbworld.org/forums/group-pur...r-specials-71/

In this case you would really have to do some STFFing and a lot of reading.

Maybe put a list of websites up on the DIY thread?

(This thead is an invaluable resource!)

Yeah, why are you looking for performance parts for a 240/280? At least get a 230 or 350 with the Sport package, and THEN look for performance parts (GL with that though since, as stated before, there isn't too much out there)
