The last door to be closed on a w210 must be shut firmly or it won't latch fully. I attribute this to the quality of sealing around the doors. A w126 didn't mind firm closing, although properly adjusted doors don't need it. To my mind there is something WRONG about a car that won't let you shut the doors completely yourself (*cough*w140*cough*) ... why not just go all the way and make a johnnicab? -j.

Re: [MBZ] correct name?
Do the females in your life slam car doors much harder than needed, as the ones in mine do? Never did understand that. Chris K Cayce, SC Talking about breaking things, within a week of me having the 230E the Missus had smashed both seat belt buckels. How you ask? Well she has a female way of undoing the seat belt, which involves twisting it in such a way that it does not retract and the male part of the buckle ends up in the door and when closing the door gets smashed. Just one of lifes little annoyances.

Fortunately the seat belt buckle has only gotten caught in the door once - made a heck of a racket when she pushed the door closed. Thankfully she didn't rear back and really slam it hard - probably would have broken it also - BTW, have you found a supplier of replacement belt assemblies?
