fortunately for me, I have an E wagon as my daily driver so that take most of the commuting miles. I've put about 1500 miles on my r230 over the past 4 years and it sits in my garage with 2 tenders. As far as Silver's i'm just waiting for delivery. I ordered them with the SWIFT springs. Hopefully by January I can install all these and sell my ABC set up. The ABC is in very good condition and it was always serviced by Mercedes dealership. I've never had any issues but I like to plan ahead.

new set up with a single pass intercooler and Needswings intake with the filters relocated to the front of the grill. The 72mm pulley will also be installed this time around. Next up will be Silvers Neomax and VVK front and rear sway bars.

In prepping to install that, I will remove the ENTIRE ABC system from my car. I will be listing it for sale in the near future for $1,500. This is for everything in the entire ABC system. struts, tandem pump, hydraulic lines, and anything else taken off. the struts are in very good condition and there are no leaks or issues with any of the parts as I've only put about 1500 miles on these parts in the past 5 years.
