the car is B reg. the first few years of production the cars had the wiper arm resting on the passanger side. as of '85 i think it moved to the driver's side and design changed to the one Koenigsegg is using now B)

don't know. i've only seen the big ones on early 2,3-16v's. side repeaters must have been an extra though, mine is '88 and has none.
the early cars i think also had the flat back mirrors.. B)

hey guys, cheers for the welcome! the mirrors were on when i bought it, and the picture makes it look in much better condition than its in! i think its been modified in a few places, so maybe the side repeaters were removed if they weren't standard? as you can see i dont know a lot about it yet (i've only had it for about 3 weeks and 1500 miles) and i'm an aircooled dub fanatic really, but i fell in love with this when it was advertised on an aircooled forum and had to buy it, so i'm hoping to learn a bit about the watercooled merc world. i'll get a few more pics up tomorrow :D

Looks interesting - got any pics of it out in the sun? Or is it just full-on stealth in appearance whatever the light?! :lol:
