My E300

[Palmer]

Picked it up the other day, ignore the pipe replacing the exhaust, took it off on my drive and had to do something!

Impressed with it so far

 

[Dieselman]

That is a very tidy W210 300TD. The Xenon lights are an added bonus.

 

[John Jones Jr]

Yes, that sure is a tidy one. Enjoy.

 

[Palmer]

Yeah i didnt realise until i drove it in the dark it had those!

It is fairly tidy, spent some time in spain so minimal rust. I really need to give it a proper detail soon as that deep green shines well nice!

Might do some minor upgrades to her soon too, like led interior lights and shizzle, but tbh shes an avangarde spec so she pretty much has all i want! Only no heated or leccy seats BOOOO!

I know the pipe at the back is temp...but the cut out in the bumper suggests what you had wasn't original either.

 

[Palmer]

Well the exhaust was the original, and i took it clean off on my drive (and i mean clean, looked like a disc cutter jobby!!) so this is temp for the time being, but the cut out had to be done so it doesnt clip my drive when i reverse on, and it doesnt look that bad with it cut out. Im not worried about cutting the bumper, E55 ones' a' callin'!

In fairness, the exhaust is still leaking from the front, which in turn is making me think about gettin a twin exit 3'' custom jobby haha!

But what the hell is with the cat on these? The way it bends round the steering column??

A very clean example of a lovely W210, not many of them about these days so look after it. Looks very familiar to another Alexander green W210 in our family too. I Agree on the AMG kit go for it would finish it off . If I am not mistaken has the windscreen been replaced by any chance ?

Yeah the AMG kit is deffo on the cards!

I'm also tempted to get some monoblocks. I normally hate following the crowds but they look so damn good!


What u mean about the window ?

 

[Dieselman]

Monoblocks don't look good, the rim is too wide looking.

The windscreen has a tinted sun band which isn't standard. Mercedes call that a Roof Extension. I kid you not.

 

[trapperjohn]

Most presentable.

That for one but secondly the fact being an Avantgarde version the windscreen is not equally tinted blue like the rest of the glass around the car.

Some of that is reflection of the sky, but also windscreens can't be tinted as dark as other windows anyway.

Allowable window tint is 70% light transmittance.
Allowable windscreen tint is 75% light transmittance.

Very true but all the W210 Avantgarde's I have seen always have a matching blue tinted windscreen:

 

[Palmer]

Sorted the exhaust out, don't think it matches the car though :/ Sounds great but the exit is meh.

[Dieselman]

300TD sound great with no silencing.

 

[V12]

Wow, that's a great sounding diesel.

 

[johnsco]

An excellent choice of MB.
Looks in great condition.
Enjoy !!
