Love the space in the engine bays in older cars, sooooo much room to work in. Really makes you question spending £10k + on a car you cannot service yourself

For classic cars, I've really started to look at these, not sure why but I really like the look of them....

I confess I know little about the Wxxx numbers of Merc's 

Just something about that link i posted, the coupes, they just look retro cool to me. Well proportioned.

Been browsing forums, apparently like my 2.2, you don't need a jack or stands for oil changes, they were built then when mercs we mercs and everything was over-engineered.

So a Coupe with plenty of poke, easy DIY work, parts apparently even from Merc are well priced. Bullet proof engines
