Turbo ?

[Merc808]

Hi,
I have seen a E220 cdi elegance in a local garage T plate. Does this car have a turdo ?

IIRC the 220CDI engine was introduced into the W210 E class in 1999 when the W210 range was facelifted.

The 220CDI is a 4 cylinder inline engine with a turbo charger. The power output quoted by Mercedes was 143 hp.

Hope this helps...

Thanks,
I think it is the facelift as it doesn't have the indicators on the wings, am I right ?

Yes, assuming the bumper blend into the front wings and headlights, car has sideskirts and lower lips on rear bumper.

I am definitely not disagreeing with anyone, I am merely confused. I thought the latest W210 had indicators in the exterior rear view mirrors? Mine certainly did.


I can only comment on the W210 Estate and the last models, did they actually have a 220CDI?

I have the brochure on my chest and it shows only the 320CDI diesel powered vehicle, however they may well have made a saloon version.

No doubt that is what you saw, but I am confused about the remark latest version?

You are correct but so can a modifies pre-facelift car.

That's different to it having indicators in the mirrors and all later body mods.
The hardest update to replicate is the front wing/bumper interface and there being no metal under the grille.

You are spot on, my eyes are out of gear to what little grey matter I have left.

A thousand and one apologies.
