This is well worth considering too, no goodies in the back on this one either but that caramac designo interior is lovely. It also has much better wheels that won't see you on the back of a flatbed before 2021 is out. If you decide you do want some 20" wheels to shatter they are ten a penny on eBay, or you can buy a set from me and I won't lie to you about how full of welds they already are!

If nothing else the presence of a car with similar/better spec from a dealer with only 10k more miles on the clock for £250 less than the private sale silver one puts you in a strong position to negotiate - I'd say that silver car needs to be £10.5k really; dealer backup might mean nothing or it might mean you don't have to pay £3000 for a pair of coil packs in 2 months, or £1k for an ABC strut.

From the headrest it looks like it is a W221 shape.

Excellent headlining action

I think that easily surpasses a month's worth of Friday fluff.

Bloody powerful vacuum cleaner!

I've never seen a headlining so impressive.
And I love the steering wheels on that generation S Class.

In mini-me news, she was born at 06:08 - 08/04.
7 lbs, 14 oz, and they're both doing fine.
I'm absolutely chuffed and this is quite easily the best day of my life

Good news LTA. Recommended name: Mercedes

[CharlesdeGaulle]

In holiday news, I saw this and thought of you lot.



Actually there are lots of Mercs here, many in beautiful condition and many others in a state of dereliction that would flatter even the most parsimonious maintainer.

The taxis are mainly Mercs in wonderful condition but in a lurid shade of bright yellow that I can't bring myself to photograph. The roads are completely mad.

My hire car is a new Seat Arona. It has 600 km on the clock and now courtesy of moi, an enormous star-shaped stone chip in the windscreen. The car is, frankly, st, but the Fiat Panda I was hoping for was not available so I was 'upgraded'. FFS, don't buy one of these.

Madeira is a wonderful place and is highly recommended.

Settling for this since that fiat selici is too far and has some minor oil leaks.
But the seller of this car says he is a trader and V5C does not have his name. He wouldn't share reference number due to trust issues. Anything fishy?
Mot seems ok. Saw car through video call too.

Congratulations glad to hear they're both doing well

CDG I dare you to take the seat back with an extra C drawn on the name if it is that dire

As we are posting hatchbacks..


Ok this Delta doesn’t quite live up to it’s predecessors, but I’ve always quite liked them, shame they weren’t badged as a Lancia here. £2500

Thanks for all the well wishes, all.

Her name is Éabha; her mum is a 'traveller'...
I just call her a gypo, she doesn't seem to mind.

Is that an old Lotus?

Nice name. She'll curse you for that eventually once she's told people how to pronounce/spell that for the bazillionth time.

Is one of the singers in the band celtic women called this? Nice name something different and I take it you can run faster than Mrs LTA calling her a gypo lol
