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.

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!

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
