Had the c43 for a few months now and slowly rectifying the minor things that let it down.
After a fruitless search for a cheap wheel to fit my w202, while I re trimmed my old one (which was all black rather than 2 tone) I came across a new old stock one in Germany.
Arrived today - woken up after 3 hours sleep by the courier so I had to fit it..
Easy job apart from the VERY tight centre wheel bolt, which took my ratchet with 2ft of scaffold bar and a yoga pose to hold the wheel while pushing up.
Just needs some leather cream to bring it back as it's sat dry for 16 odd years.
Oil and filters service next..
