    W140 600SEL

    I found the car and bought it for him, it's a bit of a Father and Son thing to share the common interest, and I cherish that. Not about the $ at all. I'm very fortunate.

    W140 600SEL

    My Dad, now 80, is thinking of downsizing from his W212 E500, he wants me to move the S500 on and take over his car. The lack of soft close doors is a real hurdle in my decision to do so. The W212 (2010) is clearly a superior vehicle. But it lacks soft close doors....

    Barn find in The Netherlands

    I'll post some pics once I at least clay bar it, I did the grille today and there was a mirror under all the dirt, even after a wash. I think I'll drive it to work in Seven Hills Tuesday, I have a pretty good commute, 80k's most of the way and some stop/start for the last few to prove it's as...

    Barn find in The Netherlands

    Can I bring the Kubota? We can check under carriages👍 On barn finds, to my eternal shame I got the 6.3 out of the garage today, after sitting idle since Ruby's year 10 formal, so 2.5 years, it was dirtier than the cars in those images. Gave it a wash then spluttered my way down to the servo on...

    C107's 300TE

    I can vouch for Patricks remarks. Ruby's W202 1999 C240 was bought by my Dad from Marshalls in 2000 as one of these cars, 1st owner Mercedes-Benz Milperra. It was 7 months old with about 7k on it. They had a range of ex management cars from C200 Classic through to Dads C240 Elegance. Apparently...

    Sold: 1986 300SE W126

    It drives beautifully, wonderfully smooth and that trademark inline 6 zzzzzzing when you're up it a bit. A real credit to Bryce. Ikey's going to have to be very careful when he gets his P's and watch the speed, it's deceptive. Very refined. He's a teenager, so a creature of few words, but he...

    Sold: 1986 300SE W126

    The proud new owner. Nice to have him in a safe, solid Automobile and peace of mind that it comes from a real enthusiast, we didn't even drive it, no need, it's been in the hands of c107 👍 And yes that is a smile, teenager style.

    Patrick's Trucks ?

    Yes, like those. And most had "Hiring" signs on the back that highlighted "98% of our drivers return home every night" I do hope that is due to operations not safety 😛 On the Hiring Signs, they were absolutely everywhere, from small convenience stores to hugh factory's Even the major hotel...

    Patrick's Trucks ?

    "However American trucks don’t tow more than one trailer like we do, A Double, B Double, Road Trains" I've just done a "road trip" from Chicago to NYC after the M-100 group meet. On the interstates there were plenty of double trailer trucks and the occasional triple. Not like our B doubles with...
