That's over 100,000 km! How is it with mileage like that? Any noises/loose parts/etc.?

I think he means that he's just never seen the black/tan color combo with the black controls on the tan steering wheel.

My car is a Classic, so it has the black steering wheel, I changed it to the TAN one, but the control buttons cost around 200$ each side, so I'll wait for a tottaled c240 with java interior and rip whatever I can find...

Front suspension arms and links have been changed 5000 km ago, and beside that and the annoying intrument cluster rattle that I'm trying to fix the car has been trouble free after all the 01 bugs have been sorted in the first 30,000km
