There are loads of online calculators that can help with this (if you can't do the calculations yourself) but you need to know the gearbox type to find out the gear ratios and also figure out which final drive ratio is fitted.

If it is a factory 5 speed then there's a chance Mercedes fitted a lower final drive ratio differential - remember tyre size is also important and that real world differences might make things ever so slightly different from the numbers
