Just picked up a '95 E320. Upgrade suggestions
Hello all,
I just picked up a 1995 E320 and was wondering if anyone can help me with a few questions.
SUSPENSION
I hate the body roll on this heavy car. Can anyone recommend a suspension that will eliminate body roll? I want to keep the same ride height.
STEREO
The radio is not working properly. I'm looking for something stock. Any suggestions where I can get a replacement radio?
SHOP
Can anyone recommend a honest and reliable repair shop in Orange County (preferably in the Huntington Beach area) that specializes in MBs.
Thanks!!
Mel

94, E320
what I know from this W124, that all the guys put kind of Bilstein sprot (or HD) shocks and H&R springs as well as H&R swaybars or E500 ones. you can get a sportline suspention that will make it so much better but I guess u need $$$
these stuff improve the suspention
these stuff improve the suspention

Why spend the cash upgrading a 10 yr old vehicle. Why not just trade it for something more current. So called upgrading of a vehicle thats that old is not economically sensable.

I don't want to upgrade to a newer car. Got this car for free. I want a beater car and this fits the bill. I had a 2005 M3 SMG, but it wasn't beater enough. I couldn't bear to park it in a crowded mall. This car is nice and low profile. I'm not looking for a suspension to track the car. Just something that prevents all that body roll.

I'm asking for suspension suggestions and a good local repair shop. If you can't help, then please ignore my thread. Your useless comments are not wanted.
