Changing the speed limiter on Mercedes B-Class
Is it possible to change the speed limiter on my Mercedes-Benz B-Class? It’s currently limited to 74mph.

You can change it by finding the lever and re-setting it. On a Mercedes it's usually a small steering column leaver that you use to set both the cruise control and the speed limiter.

Raised driving position, lots of interior room, decent diesel engines, good ride quality on smaller wheels.
