1993 100CS Quattro towing capacity ?

[Ignace Speybrouck]

Hi,

I"m about to buy a 1993 100CS Quattro with the V6.

In the books I have it saids that the engine has 172 HP but feel lazy.  I
have a tent trailer that weight about 1 500 pounds once loaded, and I'M
driving long distances with the rig.

Is the car OK with such a load and is there a tow hitch for those cars that
can take the weight ?

Thanks.

Ignace

PS I use to drive a 300TE that was heavier (400 pounds) than my future
100CS, and the Benz only had 5 more HP and felt no slug at all.  Is this
true about the 100CS ?
