I can't believe that I am reporting this: I bought my W203 second hand, over a year ago from a very plausible guy who had no paperwork for the car, no handbook no service book, but the car was in great condition and had very low mileage. I was very suspicious so did a few checks. Mb at Stratford told me that from what they could see the mileage was genuine and everything seemed ok. I was not too sure about the spec that the guy gave when he advertised the car, so I contacted MB in Maastricht and they sent me the full spec for the car. It has loads of extra's, and one that I vaguely noticed was headlamp cleaning. I could find no sign of it, ( I was looking for the little miniature wipers,):o and decided to ask MB about it when I got the chance. However today I made a real effort to track it down, and discovered a button to press which gives a very powerful jet of water to clean the lights. I am quite chuffed with this, it is very impressive. Amazing what you find when you start looking. ! Maybe I should also explain that the car is really my wife's vehicle, (though I am the owner) so I think I can be excused for not being really familiar with it !:D;)
 
If you have the headlamps washers then you probably have the Bi-Xenon (HID) option.

The headlamp washers and auto-levelling system are both mandatory for HIDs.

Would be interesting to see if you have the cornering fog lights option enables.
