I can only envy you guys from the other side of the pond...:p
My car has:
-Sportline suspension & badges
-Electric front windows + manual rear windows
-Electric sunroof
-Electric rear sunshade
-Sports seats w. mechanical adjustment & front/rear armrests
-Mechanical left mirror + electric right mirror
-Becker Europa radio cassette player + automatic antenna
-Metallic paint
-Alloy wheels
What I lack:
-A/C
-leather seats (and the fabric is pretty worn after 14 years)
What I had found in the boneyard were a set of leather seats from an E320(worn, but still serviceable), a radiator grille in the same style as a 190(no chrome strips and a large logo) and a different style of wheels. I didn't buy them just thought to ask first.
There is also a wide type of front grille, similat to that of a 560SEC, on which version of W124 does it fit?
The power figure I found for the 2.6 litre is 170hp/125kW for noncatalyst models(before 1986) and 160bhp/118kW for post-1986(with catalyst), yet on my registration card appears 125kW, and I'm almost sure I have a catalyst

just thought to ask more knowledgeable people... is it possible the Sportlines had also a tuned engine?
~Thank you
