The first 3 letters of the reg is an acryonym for whom you'd love to run over with this 493hp, 1900kg+ beast?

The only one with this VRN?

It’s silver?

[Baked_bean]

It managed to move under its own steam?

Friday budget busting goodness...

Pre-merger factory AMG kitted C124 300 CE for £20k

W221 S500 in an unusual colour for £9k

Interior looks a pretty grubby place to be. Decent options but without mention or pictures seems its a SWB without rear entertainment, blinds and massage kit. Probably actually fixed rear seats rather than electric adjustable as its not the LWB. Unusual colour though so worth a photo. Also the facelift 20" wheels for the 2010> are a bit more modern that the single five spokes that would be on the early cars.

Interesting SOTW today, a Volvo barge that doesn't get mentioned that often here. I've had a couple, but don't want that one.

Forgive me me for being a few hours early for out of budget diversions, but I thought this might hold some interest for the lovely colours and velour interior.

Didn’t even realise that it was possible to have a Rolls without leather

Nope, right first time. One had a choice of branding for one's RR.

You're probably right, but no-one would call that car a Rolls Royce when it's got Bentley written on it.

21stCM is saying that Bentley and RR were marque-fluid?

S'OK, it's Friday, these things are allowed.

[Gruber]

Happy Friday folks.

This must be pretty rare in non-derv spec, mustn't it? Very tidy. Over Thread, but anything goes on a Friday, right?
