Show us your Mercedes!

Not heard about that one swisstoni have you had one yourself? Cheers

[swisstoni]

No but I was looking at a CL600 that 'just' needed a new oil pump gasket or something and strangely hadn't been fixed by the seller.
When researching the issue I saw a YouTube of a bloke fixing it himself - he had to take both heads off to access the thing itself which sat in the engine Vee.
Mucho parts and labour.

[Purso]

Thanks for the heads up

Don't want to put you off totally - might never happen.
Just something that can happen sometimes.
Fantastic engine though with, some say, very conservatively rated power figures.

My current parts wagon when my Jeep isn't being used.

It's a high spec old 320, but needs a bit(lot) of tlc and minor restoration.



If I ever get round to tidying it up, I have a full AMG kit for it and I am completely undecided about fitting it.

I've got new rear suspension spheres as the current ones are seized and I could do with a decent driver's side wing if anyone has one going spare..

Hello Merc fans. My first visit to this forum and also as of last week, a first time Benz owner.

Here's my new smoker, e220d in Kallaite Green with Machiato leather. Gorgeous interior, cavern for a boot and just really comfy and relaxing to drive. I feel very middle aged but it's perfect for my current requirements of family moving and occasional work trips. Driving from Cambs to Aviemore this evening/tomorrow and looking forward to it. Especially at 50MPG replacing the 18MPG of my recent off-loaded Cayenne S.

I wasn't looking or even considering a Mercedes but the deal jumped out and was bonkers good value so in I jumped.






I'm afriad I am an unashamed sucker for the multi-coloured mood lighting but it's industry appropriate for me at least

The pink lights are spectacular(ly disgusting)

I assume that floor mat is rubber and not actual metal chequerplate which the photo makes it look like?

[E36GUY]

Hahaha.

Mats are rubber. I have children

1100 miles round trip to northern Scotland. Delighted with 53.1mpg fully loaded with 4 and luggage. Very comfortable and quiet to go with the economy.

Here's Gretchen

A250 AMG 4 Matic. Bit thirsty but that might be my oversized foot.

Edit: should probably go in the Cr4ppy plates thread
