For everyday use? Nothing.
For the 14.5 minutes a year that you use 100% of the performance? It's unacceptable.

Can comfortably be done in a day, the worst bit is the gearbox removal and refit.
I have now looked at the link. That is a lot of parts. I start to understand all the suggestions to get a donor car. The thing is finding a 3.0 manual donor car is probably as hard as finding a driving one. And if not going the donor car way, I wonder how hard it is to get all the parts separately.
New one I think , just had a look on line seem cheap enough.
If you fancy as day trip over here, have a word with Serek who did mine
He is a good lad
So, who picked these crops 20 years ago ?
The pikeys, they would follow the seasons, and now they find it easier, to pinch diesel and cut trees down.
Also students would pick hops and summer type work.
Then farmers got greedy cut the wages, brought in foreign students under the student work programme, pay'd crap money,.
Now they pay gangmaster's who rip off the pickers.
Happy Xmas you miserable gits

a W210 is to be avoided. Doesn't take much reading or talking to ex owners to realize that.
As I know zilch about Mercedes I had a quick Google to see what a W210 is. My goodness, I've never seen a brand described as severe catastrophic rust problems before, well, not since the early Alfas.
Bought a car, that is 200 miles away, unseen, from somebody I have never met.
What could possibly go wrong?
That is a great deal - as normally its about double that.
Never underestimate the stupidity of politicians.
