Best smoker barges 1-5 large [Vol 17]

What is the point of all that bks?

[cat220]

Had the exhaust on the e55 (210) done today. Secondary cat delete, x-pipe fitted and middle resonator removed. Sounding just perfect, the way it should’ve left the factory. Had a massive grin on my face driving home.

Ooh, that looks nice Cat220!

Nice! Did you take the old cats with you? The prices for them are crazy at the moment.

Looks absolutely fantastic, where did you have it made? Looks like quality work.

Free pliers?! Want it now.

I’ve never understood why people do this, you obviously have a keen interest in knackered old mercs like the rest of us. You clearly do own at least one w124. Why bother with making other stuff up.

Unless your Grandad was in Maroon 5 in which case I apologise.

And a pic of an SLR up for sale in Germany: https://www.luxuryandexpensive.com/Mercedes-Benz-M...

Tut tut. We would've respected a handful of ratty old Mercs without fantasising about mega cars.

What a shame....always thought this end of PH was beyond all that.

How dissapointing.

[SpeckledJim]

I've faith that TW just didn't have photos of the actual cars to hand, so borrowed/pinched some photos of identical cars.

Thanks, I’ve been using these guys on a variety of my cars over the years: http://stainlessexhausts.com/
Their workmanship has always been first class and everything comes with a lifetime guarantee.

I actually did Mike, thought I’d hold onto them in case of any MOT issues. It was also in the back of my mind they’d be worth a few quid. Lot of Platinum in them?

All depends, I have some that fetch £100-£200 each and in my last batch I got a single cat that went for £563! Seems to be the older the better, does the e55 have two or four on it?

Wow, no idea they were money like that!
4 in total, two at the front and two at the back. It’s the back two (secondary) that I’ve removed.

Strange times on the 1-5! From Lex’s babestation babe to, er, I’m not sure in a few pages...!

That’s very charitable SJ. I’m fairly sure if I owned a Gullwing then I’d have a picture to hand

There is a code which will start with KT and has four numbers after it. Post it up and I’ll tell you what they are worth.

[harrykul]

Mind if I do that too? I've got something from my 1st 124 sitting in the barn.

Actually I'm not even sure if it's a cat, but let's see!

I’m going to guess KT0040 £200ish

I only left to drive home from work and it all got a bit weird on here!

She's one classy girl. Not. She is pure filth. Great for a night (or a few) but not GF material. She was back in Tuesday, not back again until later next week I think but can't remember exactly.

In Lex news though....MOT and radiator change on Wednesday. Hopefully nothing untoward is found!
