A friend's Ford Exploder manages to get 12-20kmi out of a set of brakes. Automatic transmission, of course. I was appalled. I got 150kmi out of the factory brakes on my Camaro, with a stick shift. I'd guess I'd get the same out of nearly any stickshift car with halfway decent brakes. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
