A bargain... A W140 V8 for a few thousand dollars... $2,300 https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/miranda/cars-vans-utes/mercedes-benz-400sel/1265257955

I like the colour, the V8 and the fact this series is one of the most reliable E-class models

The 690SEL in the suburban bush!

You might be confusing it with a silver CLK convertible that I bought a few months back? This SL's black interior was replaced with an SL55 AMG red one, which has lifted up the looks (nothing more boring than a silver with black interior). Looking for SL 600 wheels as below: The W140 has...

Christmas present 🎁

Dear Patrick, Best wishes to you and your loved one for a safe and spiritual Christmas!

Well, the auction was enjoyable. Well organised with the Lions having a Sausage Sizzle and no buyers’ premium. However, as far as the Mercedes cars on auction (4) there was a Benz collector from NSW (he allegedly owns about 300 cars) who was bidding stupidly. One went for $8800, the rougher...

Live at the preview of the auction

That's one formidable machine! I can vouch for the wonderful feeling i get every time I drive my newly purchased R230 SL. As much as I love driving either of my CLK, the SL is in a league of its own.

My 2000 CLK430 is an extremely dependable daily driver. Why would I want to spend zillions on a brand new Benz (the equivalent runs into six figures!) I have airbags (not recalled) and a late model sound system with Apple Carplay and Bluetooth audio. I do test drive new cars all the time, but I...

Great find! American cars have had rust repair panels offered for years. Some US cars can have almost the whole body available in rust repair panels. Let's hope they also make an SEL sill replacement panel.

This is quite ironic as I've had the timing chain and 'accessories' on my 500SL AMG replaced in the last few days. Labour is not cheap (several hundreds of dollars), but I don't feel confident nor do i have the time and place to do it.:rolleyes:

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

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.

These CLKs are such great bargains for anyone wanting a Benz with all the bells and whistles. @ $3,800! https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2001-MERCEDES-CLK320-COUPE-AUTO-198KS-FEW-MARKS-DRIVES-WELL-3-800-NO-RWC/264804983808?hash=item3da79b6400:g:iyYAAOSwQ1dfGRr5

Real Class.

A couple of quick shots after assembly, but not detailed yet.

Here’s the paint first: And now after the final cost of clear was applied.

Monday morning and Jerry has been busy. The W140 is in the booth, ready to be painted today.
