    C107's 1981 240D W123

    Under bonnet insulation king! Bryce, can you see inside the rocker cover? Shiny metal? As long as the internals are clean, doesn’t matter how the oil looks, it means it’s doing its job very well 😊

    Nice work Sean. live read a bit on this engine after you mentioned it. It seems like a really great designed engine.

    Maybe a tough cargo net? not sure how you would secure it though. Is there some sort of space where a spare used to reside? My wife’s Atto 3 has an insert (see below pic) that is spare wheel shape, that holds the tyre inflator etc, that you can pull out. Does your car have this type of insert...

    Patricks Trucks

    Mercedes Benz has finally unveiled their BEV heavy duty trucks to the world with a big roadshow. It will be interesting to see how they go, how far they can go & what sort of payloads they can carry. Watch this space. Their approach to the look of the truck is 180 degrees to ours. Volvo wanted...

    Motorex 2024

    That looks like a pretty spectacular event. Thanks for all the amazing images. For me the most spectacular thing here is that stunning green Monaro interior. Styria’s son has done a magnificent job.

    Leanne had a space saver in her Nissan, and it got her out of trouble twice. for a work commuter car, it does ok. Plus a full size would really compromise her boot space which she uses to the max with her school stuff. As I travel a lot, I’d hate for her to get a flat out of hours, wait for a...

    Good call Brian. But how good does it look ❤️ I’ve driven the 200B sedan, but not the coup. I drive the Mini, if I want a spectacular handling car, then there is the Dodge which is a truck, so hopefully the Datto, may be in the middle somewhere I’d hope 😂 180B SSS maybe?

    Agree mate. With the BEV’s, the OEM says it’s all about weight, but we live in Australia and may want to use the range the x par comes with. Tesla now not only does not provide a spare, but also now don’t provide any charger or cables. They say it’s all about weight, but we all know it’s not. A...
