My 2007 W221 S500 is a magic carpet on its 17 inch wheels. I do enjoy a wafty ride.
I know that if I switch to "Sport," the car will change its gear change points and drop the car by an inch. And I know the suspension will harden slightly when the speed gets to be a little bit fast...
My daily driver is a 1991 W126 300SE and the one thing I miss is cruise control. To buy all the individual components from Mercedes would probably cost half the value of the car, if they are all still available.
Has anyone fitted an aftermarket cruise control kit to a W126? If so, which one...

We are thinking of fitting Cruise control to our B180 SE on a 2013 plate, as we drive to Salou every summer and wondering if it's possible and has anyone done it already.

Thanks

Hi.
