@jago_mbI have videos if anyone would like to reach out. I will try to add them to the listing tomorrow morning if it’s not too late. Pictures 105-107 are the control arm bushings below the car and are showing that they are in great condition, not cracked, and crumbing and torn. They are fresh. A properly maintained Mercedes engine hardly loses any HP, especially under 100k miles. I really don’t think getting a dyno for a 268hp car is necessary. It’s not a crazy amount of HP I’m claiming. Thanks for your comment.
@Dunlopilo not difficult at all, parts are still available for the C36 which shares engines with this car, and also majority of the parts on this engine are the same as the E320 3.2 engine since it is that same engine but bored out to 3.6 and had some head work by AMG.
@jago_mb18 inch is definitely the largest wheel I’d put on a W124 so yes I do think some people would think this week is big but I think it’s beautiful.. yes the suspension has been replaced with Mercedes original struts as shown in the pics. Not sure what torn pieces you’re referring to, I don’t see anything torn on the car. This engine is the exact engine in the C36, the HP they produce is very well known and documented at 268hp and 280 tq.
@Toni1990 No sir, the Car was put together less than 1k miles ago. the center AC vent barley blows for some reason, seems like most of the air is funneled through the rest of the vents. the AC works and is cold. And the steering wheel has a leather squeak when turning when its super hot out for some reason. sounds like leather on leather contact. When it's not hot out it doesn't make the sound. mechanically, I wouldn't hesitate to drive the car across the country tomorrow.
@harry19 that’s very weird. I’ll check the torque on the bolts when I get home from the office today but this is definitely the first I hear of this issue. I know of a few people running them on 500Es as well, no issues.
@harry19 I used the stock W124 Bolts, no spacers needed. The bolt sits in the wheel pocket perfectly and the M12 is what the W124 calls for. Bolts torqued down to 110NM. I understand these wheels were originally for W140 but they have the same hub size, bolt pattern, and offset that sits aggressively on W124, the only remaining factor is how the bolt head sits inside the pocket of the wheel and these bolts I have sit perfectly. Thank you.
@DunlopiloOne of my friends has the V8 E420, and this car dusted that off the line despite them having similar power. I've had plenty of W124s and this is by far my favorite combo, very peppy and still feels like a light car, a feeling you dont get in the V8 124s. as far as MPGs I'm averaging 18-19 mpg between city and highway.
@edandForgot to mention the side skirt are original premerger hammer skirts. I will add pictures of the stamps.
