2004 E55 K Wagon &. '96 SL500
New owner questions

Hi iI've just bought a mint low mile E55 K wagon in Obsidian black, only 51 K miles, 04 model. It was kind of done a whim but its an amazing example and owned previously by a Mercedes employee , with full MBSH. also has the 7 seat option.
Firstly 2 questions:
1 :The air suspension lift mode, I observed it working normally ( slowly ) lifting the front end, but i forgot to check the read. Does the rear end lift too? The rear airmatic dampers were replaced a few years ago.

2 : I am aware there were 1444 E55 K Wagons built worldwide. Is there anywhere I can find the numbers for RHD and UK ? There was virtually no Wagons up for sale here and none in this colour.

All four corners have air springs and will raise and lower (self-level as well) The rear uses sperate air springs and shocks where the front uses and air strut that has both the damper and spring as one unit.

I cannot help on the build numbers for the UK.
