In HK there's a lot of MB. I think just my lot 6 area it has more then 15 of them and there are around 40 parking space. So the ratio is pretty high. Anyway took pictures of the spring not the best picture, but u can see it's red and u will know what i mean when the springs compress very close together, my mechanic this is causing the tapping noise I refer on the other thread.

And the springs are for W204 because when i saw the H&R box it had W204 printed on it.

Yes all the cars are 100% taxed, so they are very expensive and registration count how big your engine is. The bigger it is the more expensive. That's why u will see a lot of C200 or E240 and S350 because of the expensive registration. An C350 cost $720,000 HKD. In USD it's around $92,000 USD.
