Hi mate, welcome to the forum. If you want to know if it is a Sportline, simply put your VIN number in to this decoder: http://www.mbclub.ru/mb/vin/?lng=eng That told me I had the interior and exterior sportline package. That will tell you for sure. Hope this helps. Nick |

A sportline package is available in two packs, the interior and the exterior, the interior has sports (wraparound) seats in the front and rear which makes it a four seater rather than a five seater, also there is no front armrest and the gear knob has a sportline badge on it. The exterior package includes 22mm lower and 20% stiffer suspension, a tighter steering box, it has slightly wider light alloy wheels and a sportline badge on the front wings. |

Interior Your front seats in the pic don't look like sportline seats, they look like they have the seat covers from a sportline, but not the seats, so maybe not the interior package. These are my seats: ![]() ![]() And you should have a gearknob like this: ![]() Exterior Can't really see in the pic, have you got a sportline badge? ![]() I think yours may have the exterior package but not interior, but you will have to check the VIN number to be sure. By the way, the alloys they used on the the sportline are 7" wide by 15" The tyres that are most common and that I have on mine are 205/55/R15 Hope this helps.... Nick |
