SL320 second owner, 27,000 miles CL500 3rd owner I think, 178,000 miles

Wouldn't let me load other pics so will try later. SL is still on original tyres, and soft top has barely seen daylight, it's in classiccarsforsale.co.uk, CL elsewhere.

The SL looks wonderful from the photos in your ad, but are they really 3years old?

Looks like work is progressing well.
Have you seen the online videos - german from memory - along the line of 'A Car is Reborn'. Excellent viewing that I came across a couple of christmas's ago - great way to fill the boring break.

varying ages, camera keeps freezing, battery out & in fixes it but dates are random on other pics too, some will be a couple of years old by now, the ones by the privet hedge are newer

but as the car isn't used it doesn't really matter, it has all the mot's and was serviced up until a few years ago, anually, when the requirement is bi annual, all at the supplying dealer, it moves from one side of the drive to another, and got used to got for lunch last year once or twice.

when I am able to polish it i'll renew the pics, but proof is in the viewing regardless of that, I need to edit the ad really.

none of the cars have even been started since April!

this post was just to show it though, the car itself can be discussed via the link and off here to be fair

this is a few weeks ago although a bit dark


this was the same day

My C220. Love the car it's great to drive and a nice car to join my Chimaera. Mind you I'm not that chuffed with the colour, I wanted Cavensite Blue or Obsidian Black but due to lease deals and time scales ended up with a choice of this or Palladium Silver.

Great thread, just been through from the 1st page. Always been more of a BMW man but have had 2 Mercedes, both W202's (I think - not sure on W codes!).

Only got pics of my old C36 though - the other was a white C220 Auto with about 200k on it. Here is the C36;
