marv Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Hi guys, going to be getting rid of my eg and getting a green mb Eco. It's got 76k and one owner from new. What's the spec with these engines? Does this model come with a rear arb? Rear discs? Going to view the car on Thursday with good intentions of buying. Already have a vtis front and rear lip here, some eg suspension and hopefully some 16" buddyclub p1s. Any help would be appreciated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Off the top of my head DAVEMB2s mb3 has 126bhp i think. He has changed the exhaust on it tho, have a look at his thread (Trin2). There actually a cracking mb to get, totally amazing mpg and still quick enough to have fun in. Hope you get it mate! Is it cascade green or bakhal green?

I can mind Daves mb from the Scottish meet and it was fairly nippy, and I remember him saying how good it was on fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marv Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Slight change of plan. Dug up the mot history of the green mb and found advisories on an oil leak and complete underbody corrosion. Recieved more pics and could see a fair bit rust on the arches Quick look through the Facebook for sale adds and found another mb local in dalkieth. This ones the burgundy red colour, years mot, not a spot of rust, reverse sensors and it's the d16w4 vtec model. Going to go for that as its only £50 more than the green one lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marv Posted February 18, 2017 Author Share Posted February 18, 2017 Pics of the mb4. Rested my vtis front lip on but I'd prefer a standard vti one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Think I've got a standard vti one kicking about in that very colour mate. Will have a look today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iv put them up for sale as they're pretty chunky. 16x7 buddyclub p1s with 205 50 16 federal rsr track tyres. Bodywork is really good! Can't wait to give it a machine polish as there's a lot of swirl marks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
