Does anyone know if the electric seats from a W126 will fit into a W116? Will the mounting holes line up?

Ok pics have to be included: My XE when I owned it (a rare Hermitage red over charcoal): After a complete rebuild (Hanging Rock 2009): Only slightly different from the original! Note that I didn't have a hand in the rebuild, but it was in very good condition when I passed it on! God I...

I wonder what these would look like on a 450? :rolleyes: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180712717775&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

How low can you go????? Some rather artistic pictures too! :D http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180710892571&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

As you can all imagine I have a few sets of keys!!! :eek: One thing I noticed is that some of my cars have a wider key than others. Are there early / late versions and which one is better for security? I know the master key opened everything, but what about the service key? Did that just...

Would you really pay that much for a so-so engine, plastic add-ons, horrible instruments and TWO energy polarisers???? :eek:

... or lack thereof!!! By request an update on my cars and circumstances. As some of you may be aware, I've recently split with the girlfriend and unfortunately it's meant we'll have to put the house on the market. I simply cannot afford to buy her out. And it's such a shame because this...

.... click on this link: http://blogs.insideline.com/straightline/Manufacturers/Mercedes-Benz/ Makes for some interesting reading on a rainy day! :D

Anyone interested in hydraulics might be interested in the following link: http://blogs.insideline.com/straightline/2010/09/2012-mclaren-mp4-12c-suspension-walkaround.html Ingenious! :D

If it was in English I would've bought this one.... Anyone speak French? It would've made very interesting reading. Sorry I didn't post before this one ended. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360376708815&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I know this one's ended, but has anyone heard of this book?? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130530034074&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Not quite an immaculate interior.... 382K kms, but still fetching a good price so far... :) http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250865741405&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

The rust in the roof is a concern and it's not shown in the pictures. The interior needs plenty of TLC.... For $10K I'd expect the wheels to be washed!! ;) http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330597901060&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

The colour's nice, but it needs a respray and there's a dint in the NSF door. For those interested: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320730513589&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Hopefully some of us will see this car next year, during the M100 Australian tour! :)

Not sure what I like better, the sound of the M100 at full noise, or the background at the start of the video..... :rolleyes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVDKztQ-n1U&feature=relmfu The big question is why they haven't tested a 6.9 or 6.3....

... and some info on the history of AMG and the Red Sow to boot! :D http://www.insideline.com/features/1986-amg-hammer-inventing-the-mercedes-hot-rod.html

Has anyone kept a record of the average value of 6.9s (or W116s), by year? I know the 6.9 originally sold at roughly $80K in 1975 and they're selling for a wide range of prices now, but what about in between? Styria made me think of this topic when he mentioned the price of parts and...

Hot looking model! http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260812947203&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Seems to be a little colour variation on the doors though. Styria can you work out just how much the total would be landed in Australia (seeing you can read German)? And just how...

For those in the market..... If it is to be believed only 131000km. Looks like the interior needs work, the paint's a little sad at the front & the headlight wipers don't function...

It's amazing what you find on the net.... So was this pic taken during a motorshow, or is this the first one off the production line (presumably 0001)? Maybe the English sign in the foreground gives something away? The first into England??? Then again it looks like cloth seats and LHD with...
