Car of the week

[Michel]

The convertible I bought a few weeks ago was very cheap...



If one is not desperate for four doors, these are modern and very reliable cars.

This 380SE looks nice for the money, great colour combination and looks like it has at least some service history:

I've always admired these, but I doubt I would fit into the car!

 

[BenzBoy]

Just delightful to drive and yes you would fit.
Regards,
Brian

 

[Patrick_R]

Now that is a pretty coup.

 

[Michel]

Great lines...

 

[Patrick_R]

Here are a pair of gems for you Brian.
Just a little bit of TLC required.

 

[BenzBoy]

Patrick, I do thank you for you kind thoughts but maybe I'll decline today.
You could always clean them up with your secret polish?
Regards,
Brian

I love a red interior. Obviously a respray from the strange position of the model designation.

Lovely SL Bryce.
I do like the red interior.

Brian,
Gee, the secret polish may struggle a bit there, but I’d give it a go

It was Tim, here's a pic from the film.

 

[Patrick_R]

It may well be Michel

Gee,
That movie is a blast from the past.

 

[Michel]

This is a real sleeper, a wolf in sheep's skin
But it comes at a price!

[Patrick_R]

WOW

 

[Nab]

So is that the old gold paint on the underside of the bonnet? Looks like lots of little bits need tidying up, really should be done to reflect the price.

Bet it goes like a cut snake though!!! If I had some spare coin.....

 

[Michel]

Exactly Nab,
it looks great at first sight, but needs finishing

I must admit I really like the colour off this 2000 model S600 W220 https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/de...8901164?pageSource=details&id=OAG-AD-18901164

It's certainly a lot of car for the money!
