1999 e320 4matic wagon/1992 190e 2.6l
99 4matic wagon

What are the most obvious and inexpensive ways to pimp the wife's new car?
Any ideas? What about major repair concerns for a 90,000 mile car? I'm new here but my wife has never owned anything other than a benz. She stiffed me with her old 2.6l 92' 190e. Be gentle...

Check the sticky. For me definitely would be oil/filter change. Transmission fluid flushed. Check the brakes, etc. Pretty soon maybe the shocks replacement.

Tinted windows will make the car look nice, and perhaps the headlights rings if you like some chrome accent.

Thanks! Car is black on black. Limo tint goes in this weekend. Bad news is oil sending unit was replaced the day I bought it and is now leaking like a stuck pig seller/www.eurocaroc.com is covering repair.

I am so pleased to have found such a devout and educated group of Mercedes affcionato's. The knowledge and expertice in these forums is awesome!
Like the sedan/saloon group but after seeing mark cummins wagon driving around last year in huntington beach/random encounter/ I was hooked. Estates/wagons are the shiznitobang! Thank you all for the support!

1999 e320 4matic wagon/1992 190e 2.6l
Tint completed. Rims/tires coming, most likely oem from someone that needed 20+" on their s500. Our benz mechanic checked it out and described it as a "steal" Now I need to find an 01-03 wagon so I can get out of the 190e. not a bad little car but it doesn't get the mileage the wagon gets. It feels like half the size and power. Too bad they didn't make/import an early 0's e55 wagon?
