Turban should be included at point of sale. CL is much classier and better looking!

It's not gold :D

Am looking towards the bottom of the pile for a functioning car rather than a museum piece ;)

£2000 ish?
Yes if you include a week all inclusive in Antigua ;D

So a £500 (ish) 20 year old Merc.

I could mention the demonic 300SEL 6.3 from the late sixties and early seventies...........but not for £500. :'(

Electrics are as much an issue on a modern Hyundai as they are on an older Merc/BMW/Jag etc ;)

I have all receipts/bills for my E class the only electrical failure has been on one of the rear window motors.

If Al offered you £8000 would you be tempted to part with her?

Spending that sort of cash wouldn't be an E class ;)

Quite honestly I don't think I would sell it for £8,000 because I know I would regret it, the main reason being unless I have a lottery win it's the closest I will ever be to owning a new one (E63 AMG) 😉😉

Well rang the seller with a view to looking tomorrow and trying to establish overall condition... A couple of bumper scuffs/drinks and apparently only just starting to bubble, but he hung up when I suggested that 'great export car' wasn't a particularly inspiring selling point... I was trying to establish whether it was worth viewing or not, but with that attitude I hope he has all 17' of it in the way for months...

The bumper was scuffed after drinks? That was pretty honest of him  :y

Buy a bad one & you will regret it especially an S class , this one certainly sounds suspect.

Good to see you're not just well adept at pissing people right off online; your skills also translate well to telecommunications  :D ;)
