<<grrrr, I was looking under the hood of some recent C class and noticed Lucas proudly printed on some electronics so it's closer than we think.>>
The 202, hardly a recent car now, used a Lucas brake booster. My '01 C320's front calipers are Lucas and are easier to service than any of the calipers on any past MB I've owned. Not that I'm endorsing Lucas. 113,116,123, 201 twice, 202.
