Hi. A few more pics. Had her for a 4 whole days now and she has done more miles in 4 days than in the last 3 years. Generally no problems other than the wing mirror falling off (Stuck on with Supper Glue ! ). Turns out its the wrong wing mirror anyway, so Im chasing a replacement.

I saw a restored mint one here in Dublin 3 weeks ago and thought it was one of their finest efforts and would love to own one some day.It couldn't be cheap ?

That truly is a wonderful old car

How did you come by it? Was it just love at first sight or had you been lusting for ages?

Cheshire Classic Benz have just sold an almost identical 220SEb, in fact I first thought it was the same car. The CC Benz car has a light brown interior http://www.ccbenz.co.uk/?page_id=14.
