    Patrick's W220 S430

    From what I could find online the issue has been resolved, with the GR86 at least. Mines a May build so fix has been applied. I hope 🤞

    I do apologise for no pics of the GR86, or the Kubota. I’ve been oversteering.

    Patrick's W220 S430

    Pick up is scheduled for 11am 23rd, tomorrow morning, so I guess there is still the opportunity to quadruple my daily drivers cylinder count. Yeah, na. I'm looking forward to some go-kart fun and the kind of reliability peace of mind that comes with new cars, and new machinery in the factory...

    I have the Pilates covered my way now, the climb up into the seat of the Kubota balances with the bend down into the GR. The heart very much said yes, and the head will be rewarded with a significant drop in running costs.

    Patrick's W220 S430

    It's as per the pics above, metallic white over the alcantara black with red interior. It's in stock at Windsor Toyota, so if the paperwork stars align I may pick it up tomorrow! 😎 I'm besotted, the photo's of the interior don't do it justice, it's just stunning to sit in. And the carpet mats...

    Patrick's W220 S430

    Apparently with the rear seats folded down the boot space is sufficient for a set of 4 spare wheels for track day duties, So there is that. It'll be plenty of space for my weekly Aldi shop, even on Kitty Litter week. It's the getting down into it and up out of it I'm considering most.

    In a textbook case of polar opposites, I'm seriously think of this.

    I had a Mustang renter in the States last year, thankfully it had a reasonably sized boot so I could store the bits that fell off. Yeah Na.

    Nope, I've ruled that out. Have a look at the S500 for sale thread, I've set out my thoughts 😛👍

    It's been a wonderful car to own. Time for a change though.

    S500 For Sale

    Sure has, I originally listed the E500 at $25500, no bites other than the "I'm in the Army or on an oil rig" scammers, dropped it to 22,500, still nothing, then 18990 and it sold next day for $18,500. I was pretty happy as I paid $26.500 5 years prior and Dad put 100,000k's on it.

    Possibly a little low market wise, but if it hangs around I may change my mind, so, out with the old as they say.

    S500 For Sale

    No, that's been sold. I haven't made my mind up on a replacement, but have a few ideas. It'll possibly be new, definitely not a Benz and almost definitely not european. It'll have an internal combustion engine and the battery will start it and make the radio play. We just picked up a new...
