Well, I know nozzing other than the seller's reputation (he runs a Mercedes shop called Brooklyn Motoren Werke), but it appears to me that the front wheels are canted to the left, as in a left turn. Why don't you ask him if you think the steering wheel isn't turned, um, commensurately.

I think it's the fish-eye lens he used to take the shot. Looks like his hand on the left side of the photo?? Jeff Zedic Toronto 87 300TD 83 300D

Thanks, Jeff. I couldn't make myself believe that the old finnies had tilt SWs! On 10/17/05, Jeff Zedic [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think it's the fish-eye lens he used to take the shot.

The steering wheels on W110/111s were quite large and the columns rigid (but slightly cocked to one side)! Marshall -- Marshall Booth Ph.D. Ass't Prof. (ret.)
