By the way, the AMG rims, specially made for the AMG MB 100 D, were added to the special equipment programme for standard vehicles when the rapprochement between Daimler Benz AG and AMG come about. This is also the reason why two different types of rims were created for the AMG MB 100 D: the first series with the original AMG logo and since 1990, when the Daimler-Benz AG officially began to cooperate with AMG, a modified version of the alloy rims with the typical Mercedes-AMG stripes. From January 1999 onwards, DaimlerCrysler had a majority stake in AMG for the first time, followed by its complete takeover and integration in 2005. In the early 1990s, some DTM (German Touring Car Masters) teams who relied on Mercedes-Benz, were also using the AMG MB 100 D rapid transporter as a team car.
