Granted, I have a w124, but I always jack by the main crossbeam, that runs between the engine and transmisison, and put the jackstands under the jack points. I never lift up just one side of the car, even if I will only be working on one side. I always lift up either the entire front, or entire rear, of the car. I've heard that is the safest way to do it.
