chris40 ◊ 2007-09-16 18:20	Yes, that would be it. Thus keeping some of the muck off the side windows and mirrors.

chris40 ◊ 2007-09-16 20:03	I thought that at first, but apparently 308 was the designation of the first Sprinter. Link to "cgi.ebay.co.uk"
garco ◊ 2007-09-16 20:26	That's not true. The Sprinter has also the name 308. See this (Sprinters and T1's): Link to "images.google.nl" Normally we give this Mercedesses T1 the make Mercedes-Benz and then chassis code [T1] if the badge (307,308) is not seen. -- Last edit: 2007-09-16 20:43:54
chris40 ◊ 2007-09-16 20:41	Fair enough, I'll settle for [T1].
