    Sadly the M100 forum is no more and all the content is gone, so unless anyone saved a local copy, all the links to it are now dead.

    M100 6.9 EFI conversion

    I have no idea about the M100 - However, I do know that Jaguar V12s running the Lucas version of D-Jetronic make a lot more power and use less fuel with a modern FI system but this a $10k job - and probably easier as the manifolds are already set up for regular sized injectors etc.

    S212

    Its a 2012 E350 Wagon, with the 276 engine, not the 272 engine. It wasn't easy to find a car. I wanted a seven seater car, not SUV. Nobody makes this anymore due to profit margins on SUVs. Even most companies push you into their fattest and most bloated offering. For example, Mercedes...

    Donor 450SEL and 6.9 #5370 progress

    I’m not sure of the driver behind it, but the antenna location moved from the front wing to the rear one late in the early cars. Not sure of the exact date, my guess was late 74 or early 75. Same change on the 107. it’s possible this was to start aligning with the then new w123. But...

    Donor 450SEL and 6.9 #5370 progress

    Can't confirm without seeing the engine, but I would guess K-jet. I'm pretty sure it was only the 1975 cars that had d-jet and the antenna at the rear of the car, where the earlier D-jet cars had the antenna at the front.

    Donor 450SEL and 6.9 #5370 progress

    UK market 450s were not fitted with a tachometer. No idea why. Even rear seatbelts were optional on UK spec cars, which is shocking to me given MB's apparent emphasis on safety.

    Blaupunkt Frankfurt MB to be available soon (New release)

    I think the balupunkt would look better thn the W116 than the continental does. The continental is more W126 era in terms of its look and is an alternative to radios like the Becker 1402. Personally I like the original radios in my cars, so have gone back and installed them. My old 280SE...

    Blaupunkt Frankfurt MB to be available soon (New release)

    That looks promising. So many of these radios don't really look the part.
