That would be wagon specific. Front springs will be the same but the rears are different because of the SLS. I would think that the 500E springs would be the same since they have SLS as well.

What I meant was do I search for "wagon specific" aftermarket springs for the front? Or will the sedan aftermarket front springs also work on the wagon? Thanks.

Man they are some sweet wagons.

Foreyes I wish you luck. I've been looking here in the UK for a black/tan interior, or dark blue grey interior with no luck after four months.

I've seen this E280 with factory fitted AMG body kit but at nearly £6000 it's too steep.

I'm tempted by this http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk...0&max_mileage=

but my wife is not too keen on the colour. What do you guys think?

Here's a link to their site. I'd need to persuade the wife to part with her mini then she could have it!

Have a look at some of the others they have sold.

I'm gonna have to work on the wife! She saw a sedan in that colour today and did'nt like it. She has her heart set on black or the midnight blue like the amg I posted. Women! Can't live with em can't live without em.

I'll look up my part numbers and get them to you. They are not aftermarket per se, since they are MB parts intended for the Sportline version. I got them at an MB dealer, and I think they were referenced from the 94-95 Sportline sedan. The wagon was not offered as a Sportline here in the US, and these items were not a special order.

holy crap thanks for pointing that out!! that thing is totally ****.

Wagons sure do look sweet with flared fenders! It's definitely more of an improvement to flare out the fenders on the wagon that it is on the sedans and coupes! All of these pics really make me want to replace my current car with a '95 wagon!!

Indeed, no doubt proper credit should have been granted to our graphics art dept. That would be... the Z.

I'm still amazed how clean the cars are cut out. I get ragged edges and air brush 'em out. Doh! And where do you find the backgrounds?

A ZEN master... piece. Hmmm, still looks kinda like my car.
