After some fruitless attempts to get a copy of this article id been chasing for ages(!) i finally got hold of a copy of the Dec 2004 Merc Enthusiast.

I have the article as a 1.3MB PDF should anyone still be wanting it.

cheers

 

I'd like a copy! Can you please email it to leonard.carson@gmail.com? Thanks

 

I'd like a copy also! Please e-mail it to me: mikk.olle@gmail.com

 

can you post it here, if not e-mail me: jdoggery@gmail.com. thanks.

 

Looks like I'm not the only one lucky to have this issue.

 

Is it me.....or are the numbers "produced" way off ?

 

I thought they only produced 1500 C43 amgs. Is that worldwide?

 

PDF sent to the above emails.

Unfortunately PDF's cannot be posted. If i get time tonight ill have a go at rescanning and posting it up as JPG's, as it would be much more beneficial to the thread than having to email it out the next time someone digs this up

 

lets see if these are readable...

Edit, they seem to get compressed to an unreadable quality.. will try and sort it later.

 

Thank you, so much! That was very informative and added more to my appreciation of my own C43.

 

obviously those are worldwide numbers for the c36, c43, as well as euro specs
i know it's 0-100km/hr but still those numbers are waaay too slow, too conservative testing.

 

they built 30 C55's between 1998 and 2000? anyone have any idea what those look like?

 

 

Like a C43!

 

i believe those 0-62 times are Merc's official figures, so may be a little conservative as usual. I have seen huge variation in figures for these cars, (some c36's claiming to be as quick as e36 M3's, i dont quite think so) so who knows what factors cause such variations.

Gotta love the W202 C55, what a sleeper!!

 

Sly55, thanks for posting the pictures but they seemed to be too small for reading the words in the article. Could you forward a copy of the PDF to ekjdmspec @ hotmail.com? Thank you in advance.

Will

 

damn, C55 looks sweet! looks like 18's on there, and lowered. anyone know if that was standard spec for those?

Thanks for that link, Den. Something I've always wanted to know, but never thought about it while I was signed on to search for it.

 

yeah i know the pic files are no good.. havent had a chance to upload larger ones yet, i will forward you the pdf tonight, cheers.

edit: ok here they are, 800x600 is the biggest i can upload, so you can save them, rotate them and zoom. Its not the best but its readable and the best i can do! The PDF is the way to go, if you want a decent more legible copy, PM me. Cheers

 

and the rest...

 

Thanks Sly for e-mailing me the files (it was several days ago but one must show his appreciation)

 

please email the file to me @ mnadell@sbcglobal.net

thanks in advance, michael

 

No worries shogun!

Can anyone provide a way to post the PDF where people can download it themselves? Maybe someone has a W202 site they can post it on or something?

 

dear sir,

I would love a copy as well. vardars@bellsouth.net
Thank you in advance
