Just looking at "tilting cars" and aparently Mercedes has been offering this on the SL for about 2 years...(it cost much more than my whole Activa!)

Surely, with someone who is good at programming, this is possible on the Activa (?)

Hi,

I know this is an old post, but Mercedes has used Active Body Control, (ABC), for 18 years + now, IIRC it started out on S Class W220 and CL Coupe C215, then SL R230.
My S55 has it, corners at insane speeds, absolutely wonderful :)

Hellish expensive if it goes wrong, I've got a Customers V12 CL600 in right now, will be here most of next week for rear Subframe out, all new rear Pipes and Accumulators and a front Valve Block rebuild
Work on a lot of them. A single ABC Suspension Strut is over £1100 and that's with my trade discount ;)

Cheers Dave
