I believe the W208 already has camber adjustment at one end of the car (forget which), but you can get fully adjustable kits for front and rear from these guys:

MB specific page:

Their website sucks but from what I've heard their parts are the best in the business.

Their prices are probably in Aussie dollars.

Camber is adjusted at the inboard end of the suspension link.

You can get offset bolts to give 3mm adjustment either way. These are really for correcting original build tolerances but may just work.

Those K-Mac bush kits look just the ticket if they have enough offset.

thanks guys, the thing is i dont really know what i need and how much i need to correct it, so the best bet is im going to let the garage tell me what i need to stop my tyres wearin out earlier..

I'm going to order some BenzBoy arms.
I've read about 'squeaking' from the K-Mac poly bushes which puts me off. Also the K-Mac bushes pull the lower arm in and the BenzBoy arms push the top out. The result is a slightly wider track.

But this may cause the tyre to rub on the arch..
