1986 mercedes 280sl advice needed.
Discussion
i'm a bit confused so heres hoping one of you bright lot can enlighten me. the car has 130k on it and in last 3 months has started consuming oil and water in large qauntities. the only real evidence of where this stuff is going is when i lift off after a high speed run ie pedal flat to floor on motorway , and she lets out a plume of grey smoke seconds after lifting the throttle. there is no evidence of water in oil and no real evidence of leaks. i brought the car to my trusted local specialist and have been told it needs new head gasket. and that this is a pig of a job and comes in at circa 2k. not sure how all that sounds to you? expensive?
