Nice source of info. there Bryan. Though for my car it brings up a question or two. According to that website, Mercedes used "Import loop" during the 70's to the mid 80's, then switching to Feintuft velour. My car was made in April '80 and has what I think would be the Feintuft velour. It is definitely not a loop carpet. Is this Feintuft velour a wool blend carpet? You'll have to pardon my ignorance, but I didn't realize Mercedes used real wool in their carpets. I always knew Rolls Royce did. I just thought the carpets in Benzes was just a real high quality cut pile carpet, but still made of regular carpet materials like nylon and such.
