Here you go Al (and 1980s Merc lovers)..
« on: 29 August 2018, 13:34:14 »
One for you? I know you like a bit of 1980s Teutonic motoring.

(Originally spotted in a FB group and was going to post it at the time, but now it's properly for sale - not mine, obviously, I'm not overly enamoured by 1980s Mercs.. although I probably wouldn't kick this particular one out of bed if it were RHD)

I thought it would have been the ideal colour for STEMO (but he's rejected it because he'd rather drive a milk float) - the stains wouldn't show ;D

We'll all be driving milk floats one day, there will be no choice.  :P I'm (a little bit) older than you, so I will probably be able to stick with petrol or derv, but you............oh no......no no no.  ;D

Indeed.

Stupid bumpers aside, I rather like that. Even the interior TBH - odd I know.

Ha! I've already planned a barn/outbuilfing which swmbo has christened "the toy box"  :y

I'm thinking a 24 x 24' garage with lift and a 12 x 24' office/games room. Should do nicely  :y

Nice 8)

Solid SLCs are still reasonably sensible money. Even SLs can be had in the States for half what gets asked for them here.
