While lying under the car, I also noticed the lack of the typical MB
undercoating found on undersides of my previous MB's. Has MB found some
secret and magical elixir to repel rust, or is this just another case of
"bean-counter" takeover, and I should not expect thisun to remain as
rustless as my 30-year-old 124?

Rectangular
hole in that plastic bumper cover for horizontal tow bar is critical for

Good luck, I'd also hesitate... The first cut is the deepest!
How about removing covers inside the trunk to get to metal?

Max, I lay (yes, that's "lay," as in "reclined" - I laid a tarp on the
ground and then lay upon it) under the rear of Schwartze a few minutes
this afternoon and studied the possibility of installing that trailer
hitch from the 124 onto it. 'Sort of a cursory glance thus far without
any measurements, but I'm thinking I may be able to do it in very much
the same manner as before. 'Not ready to cut a rectangular hole in
that black, shiny bumper cover, yet, though.
