Telmo, i suppose you are right on how lucky we are here in the US, as far as parts/mod availability. Anyhow, your wagon looks great.

An actual W203 wagon

As few seem to be posted. This 2004 C320 is essentially stock. I love it as it is. Heresy here, I know, but I still like it.

Ha! No. Just a snap shot with a Canon G9. I need to select a better setting and backdrop before I use the guns. This was just a q&d snap to post.

Re: the wagon. Thanks. I am not such a fan of all the aftermarket stuff. I just love the clean lines of the W203 wagons. And I like to keep 'em clean, too.

The E-series wagons are too big, in my eyes. The proportions don't quite seem right. These are just perfect, to my totally biased eyes!

Cheers!

Agreed ! Love the lines of the W203 wagons-and the sedans and coupes for that matter - the designers got it right.

The 540 wagons are sharp, but you have to love a stylish W203 estate

Indeed. That wagon is why i bought mine. Steve had so many cool options loaded into that wagon it wasn't even funny. You can find some pretty cool info about it on their website.

Henry/hanknum - Can't wait to see your wagon with the quad exhaust like pic 3 above.

Hmm! Those are the wheels fitted to all C180s in SA - I like them. I was surprised when they fitted them to the bottom of the range here. They look better than our Elegance wheels. Our Avantgarde has a very nice staggered set up.

OK, here's my wagon with the H&R Cupkit and Sport Sedan 17" wheels. The springs lowered the front about 1-1/2" and the rear about 1-3/8". To me it looks like the rear is sitting too low. What do you guys think?

I'm thinking I might go back to the stock rear springs and then install the thinnest pad (currently has the thickest). I also might experiment with the different lower shock mounts (Greg - you know what I mean). I don't really want to mismatch components, but I don't really have a choice. Unless, anyone has any other ideas of raising the rear with Cupkit.

Rear is too low for the aerodynamics to work. These cars must be nose down!

my wagon


c32 , quad exhaust.

and soon there will be a set of 19" bbs le mans. And hopefully a nicer suspension setup
























wheels are gonna be repainted with a gunmetal centre and chrome bolts instead of gold ones...

grats on the suspension

you can run thicker spring pads in the rear to raise it up a little. edit: re-read what you said...are you on #4 pads already?

OMG...if you are local I'd trade you my set for that set. I like the gold bolts btw.

i'm thinking about repainting my LMs as well...but I don't know if I want a darker center or not. BUT if I do...it's gonna make the brakes look killer
