    280SEL for sale by the Maitland Progress Association

    eBay Cheap so far, and will probably stay that way. Rarer than a 6.9! Slower too..... :( Still, it's the kind of car you (well I at least) want to buy, just because it's a little bit different. You feel bad for the prograss assn people for putting effort into a car that will only sell for...

    Bumper Delete

    Interesting one: this eBay ad shows a red 116 with the upper bumper removed at the front. I can't decide if it looks better or not.

    Shannons Wheels 2010 (Canberra) Pics

    Hi all, Pics from Shannons Wheels 2010 in Canberra - on the lawns in front of Old Parliament House on Sunday March 21. Fold-up middle row seats in the stretch Caddy: Stretch Caddy exterior - the way the doors look open really spoils it in my opinion: Makers mark on an old headlamp, off...

    Engine Swap: M116 from w116 Replacing M110 in w123?

    Hi all, One of the options I keep pondering for the rusty 350SE is, rather than extensive body repair that it needs, just sticking the (good and low mileage) euro M116 engine into another, good body. The obvious choice is of course another w116; but it just occurred to me that the w123 uses the...

    This Xmas trim job

    The sunroof frame removal tutorial is here: TK - windshield removal is not required. As Bill says, the frame can stay in the car for headlining removal.

    6.9 advertised as 450SEL?

    Can't comment on engine numbers etc, but I second Cam's call re the dodgy crashed 6.9. Lack of detail in the ad means pretending not to know in my book. Old thread: http://topklasse.org/forums/showthread.php?t=609 Lukas

    Stripped / Rounded Sump Bolt

    This is for someone at work, and not on an MB: The sump bolt head has been rounded by a failed attempt to remove it with a ring spanner. A subsequent attempt with a pair of multigrips also failed. Does anyone have any ideas for how to get it off? It's a conventional protruding bold head...

    Bonnet Release Kaput

    Okeydokey, so I finally got around to looking at the engine of the newly acquired dark blue 6.9, and am immediately stopped by the bonnet release not working. The little lever on the passenger (left) side footwell side wall moves about with a little resistance and over its full travel, but the...

    The Blue 6.9

    Some pics from the test drive on the weekend: On Bulls Head Rd - testing out the suspension over dirt + corrugations - while it does a reasonable job, the hydraulics can't really keep up, and being so heavy the car feels quite slippery too. The road tyres and damp road wouldn't have helped...
