w126 on BBC
 
Looking through news articles, I stumbled across Yasser Arafat in a w126 mercedes. Thought I had to share this

Is Ariel Sharon any better? He is a Terrorist 2

My dads family are Palestinian so of course I have my views but I wish they would just stop fighting and leave eachother aone.

Given their activities, I think both sides can safely be called "Terrorist" states. Their actions are despicable, deplorable, and an utter embarrassment to Homo Sapiens.

Both Sharon and Arafat need a good smack up side the head; they need to seize the initiative and change the course of history rather than dooming their compatriots to repeat it ad infinitum.

Way too much killing-it's nearly unbelievable that such barbarians still exist:mad:

Yaser Arafat a terrorist? If he was, then the US would get him... and why aren't they getting him? Also... the way the palestinians are treated by the Israelis are no different than the Nazi's did to the jews during WW2... but thats another story. I wasn't hoping of bringing yet another bad discussion on to the board.

w126... I am 17 years old, but I know more than most people do about world leaders. Probably more than our president. However, Sharon is not a very nice person. Many people of Israel hate him infact. And in 1983 or maybe 1982... he was in charge of wiping out an ENTIRE Lebanese village... killing mostly women and children. If he isn't a terrorist, then you have another definition for terrorism.

Euro lights with wipers...
 
..look good. I put Bosch Euros in about a month ago and left the wipers off in the interest of time that day. I liked the look, but seeing the Euro blades on that 126 makes me wonder. Maybe I'll try putting mine back on...

Snibble 03-27-2002 05:20 PM

w126.. thank you.

Now about the car... why is it that the US version sucks? I mean the Euro lights and Euro blades look so much better than the US version lights and the US version short stalky little blades?

Ice-Benz 03-27-2002 05:55 PM

The "Euro" wipers are bigger and not mounted on the headlight itself but below the lights. And one other thing, how come the u.s. spec w126 have bigger bumpers than the Euro ones?

Benzman500 03-27-2002 06:06 PM

Well here in the U.S. the goverment regulates the bumper size for saftey because they feal more between you and the other car is better.
LOOKS THE EXACT SAME AS THE 500 WHEN WE FIRST GOT IT!!:)
