Cool wheel info quote from the article about the vans rims;

"Interestingly, the rims designed for this van became part of Mercedes-Benz's special equipment catalog for standard vehicles once Daimler took a majority stake in AMG in 1990. That's why two versions of these wheels exist. The early ones feature the original AMG logo, while the latter set has the Mercedes-AMG brand with the stripes."

That's one odd van. Like the unholy love child of a Pinzgauer and a Vanagon.

Couldn't get the PM linky to work, but found another story on the van....

Would those wheels have the same oddball 5x130 wheel bolt pattern as the G wagen?

I love the 100D. Used to see them all the time when I lived in Ukraine.
