colours

Hi all Sorry if this is an old question but I haven't managed to find a similar post. I am looking at late 202, early 203 and 210's at the moment. These are clearly from the worst era for MB rust but is there any patten for different colours resisting corrosion more than others?

I visited Mercedes World at Brooklands earlier today and they had a couple of very nice new CLS models in Designo finishes. One was Zircon red, nice colour but not sure if it is worth nearly £5K. Not that different from the standard Fire Opal red. They also had one in Alubeam Silver which is...

For anyone who is interested, there are some great photos of the Designo paint and interior finishes that are available. You need to go to flickr.com Or follow this link: DESIGNO - Flickr: Search If you then click on one of the photos posted by designo USA you will get all the photos...

Hoping you people can help me again please? I'm attempting to fit a RightClick alarm to my 1996 C180 estate as the old alarm system has expired! The instructions with the alarm are a bit vague (to say the least!) but I have managed to get it all fitted except the central locking lock/unlock...

Spotted in a car park recently.................... Not only does the picture not do the true colour justice (it was very pink) but it was fitted with with fluffy pink fur seat covers emblazoned with the logo "Pink Power".................... Apart from that, it was quite a good paint...

What colours suit the new E class saloon? Having only seen pictures of the car it is hard to judge whether lighter or darker shades suit the car best.

In the FT Weekend Magazine on Saturday there is a feature on car colours, derived from a DuPont survey. Below are the % stats (NAm = North America). It has also been said that silver cars are less likely to be involved in accidents than those with other colours (U. of Auckland research). Make of...

Which colours are considered good or bad for Benz's? Does it vary between ranges? There are numerous exotic-sounding colours, such as obsidian back, almandine red and tourmaline green and shiny grey (:D). Perhaps it comes down to personal choice on the one hand and what the trade's perception is...

After viewing a 2000 model CLK yesterday that was rustier than my 1997 C Class, it got me wondering if there are some colours that are more prone to rust than others. I don't know if there is any substance to my theory, but I was wondering if those of you who see a lot of Mercs (e.g the Dealers...

I seem to have a liking for Mercs in rare , obscure unusual colours.Here's some A 300SE - i can't recall seeing S class saloon in 420/500/560 -has anyone? and also in that choclate brown colour again mainly 300SE and maybe a 420SE 300SL Or that Primer grey in 190/E200-300 C class in yellow...

Hey all, I'm not a big fan of the colour of my AMG alloys and would like to get them changed to some which are a bit darker. The current colour is the normal silver, but I would like to get them changed to titanium silver. Does anyone have any experience of this? What's better painting or...

Were these colours offered on any other models other than the E500 ? Even the gear knob has the slashes ! I quite like it, typically German abstract. The car is for sale at the www.thehairpincompany.co.uk

Having removed bumper and fitted rear parking sensors I am now strugling to wire the dam thing up, I need to know the colours for; reversing light, boot light (ie constant 12 volt and rear brake light. Can anyone help ?

Ok, me again, I'm having a headache trying to find out what colour my car is! lol The dealer I bought it from actually asked me what colour I thought it was - he didn't know himself!! It looks quite metalic dark grey in some lights, but when you look at the trim, it's a definite blueish grey...

Any decent freeware for changing the Taskbar/Start button colours and/or for creating one's own theme? I mean, the built in XP Silver colour scheme, for example. Why does the Start button stay green??? :confused: :crazy: TIA

Further to my thread of 14th June (SLK R170 CD Changer upgrade for Audio 10), and the excellent information provided by Miro and Jom, I am now ready to install the MC3198 fiber optic CD changer. My question today relates to the three wire power supply loom (part number A210 540 5835). It...

Dear all I am in the process of deciding to add the illuminated door sills to my W203. I've seen in the stealership brochure that a yellow reflective strip is available. As my car is travetine biege, I thought that this would be a great compliment to the car. However before I order the...
