Wanted to buy this, emailed all the important questions, showed the ad to friends, got the Mrs to like it and then someone else bought it. Should have taken heed of the saying 'you snooze you lose'

Brilliant.

All you'd need to do is paint it orange, find a deserted multistorey car park and you could pretend to be Ryan O'Neal.

Wow, that looks like hell of a lot more than £4k's worth. A headturner for sure....better luck next time!

It looks like a cracker doesn't it, and the fact that the engine and box had been looked at was appealing too.

I would have enjoyed piloting it around London. Oh well, back to the classifieds.

Was pretty damn awesome. here's a couple of other old Mercs which have caught my eye recently at similar cash.

I'm currently sad I missed out on an £1800 TVR S1 which has now disappeared from AT, just when I realised it'd be perfect for me. Gutted.
