I don't think one could go very much past the kaleidoscope of these photos - nostalgia at its very best. Regards Styria https://www.google.com.au/search?as_st=y&tbm=isch&as_sitesearch=topklasse.org&gws_rd=cr&ei=3UJ3WPTSJMHB0gTK7b7IBA#gws_rd=cr&imgrc=ideiPpZw7HBQ6M%3A

Nice, straight, well kept car in the Southern State. Just a couple of observations. Firstly, one would think that the owner could have cleaned the carpets. Secondly, the Paint Colour appears to be Petrol MB877 - a rarity on a Ch. 116 car as it really did not come into its own until the advent of...

I originally purchased my 450SE probably 12 years ago, primarily for the purpose of fitting its interior to another 450SE that lives (lived) in the Snowy Mountains. Once the interior had been removed, I was going to part out the car. However, it did not take long to realize that I had a really...

Baden Baden is a small city in Germany and very much at the forefront of perceived affluence and cultural achievements and events. I was curious to see the types and quality of classic and vintage vehicles that would be on display. I was not disappointed. The video goes for some little time...

Sounds familiar ? Especially when applied to older cars going back to the fifties, sixties and perhaps even seventies, or when perhaps referring to the venerable M100 engine with its complex injection system. Of course, I understand that some owners and members may disagree and, of course if...

Many times I have mentioned the Lagonda Rapide, basically a four door version of the Aston Martin DB4. Sure enough, the article makes it quite clear that there was more to creating this Saloon merely by extending the wheelbase and adding two doors. I wanted to feature this write up in TK...

I hope this link is going to work. http://roesenclassics.de/M120/W116-V12-600-SE-5543.jpg I am a little biassed, but Petrol (MB877) has got to be one of the finest 116 colours. The other notable feature has got to be those wheels. Can anyone identify them ? BTW, looking up that website shows...

One of the many reasons for my relative absence relates to the fact that I have been restoring one of my Rover 3 litre Coupes. In this instance, it is a 1966 Mark III Coupe.

It is not everyday that a top notch 6.9 comes up for sale. The car I am referring to belongs to TK fellow member 'Ofonteney" who has been the proud owner of his 1978 6.9 for just on about five to six years. In that time, he has spared no expense in maintaining his car in absolutely superb...

Well, when I say low mileage, I am talking of a genuine 130K. kilometers. I knew of the car, having seen it ten years previously, and owned by a wealthy, and I mean wealthy, enthusiast. I often thought about it, and I was a little "peeved" so to speak, when I heard that it had been bought by a...

I have been privileged to limited private use of abl567's 450SE - it is obviously Anthony's car. My understanding is that he may well be looking for a good home for this splendid specimen of the 116 range, following his recent purchase of the CLK430 Coupe. The car, having previously been...

I am looking for guidance or suggestions how to remove seized brake Caliper pistons from their respective bodies. Compressed Air would normally be sufficient. Whilst I have not tried that as yet, I am extremely doubtful that this will prove the solution. One could also try to pressure pump...

No, it is not a Grosser ! Remember, I have always maintained that,. from a grammatical point of view,. there is no "Grosser". Anyway that is now really not the point. The 600, pictured hereunder, defies description - it is up there with the best from a styling point of view. I believe that only...

How close is Cadillac in particular, and General Motors in general, to the established Germans ? The styling, of course, is an individual preference, whilst the interior probably would not stand up to the best that other "Super" Saloons are able to offer. However, from a dynamical point of...

Not a full test, but driving impressions and overall assessment. Regards Styria http://www.windingroad.com/articles/reviews/quick-drive-2012-mercedes-benz-gl550/?utm_campaign=Weekly+Email&utm_medium=email&utm_source=email-357&utm_content=WR80+2

It's probably fairly accurate to state that one of the most neglected items from a maintenance point of view would be the differential. You know, out of sight, out of mind, particularly if you are a mechanic of the DIY variety, bereft of a hoist facility. Laying on the ground, underneath the car...

If you are an enthusiast, in the truest sense of the word, it is unlikely that you will find a better magazine than these. Great read, lots of good info on all matters of oldish cars, and with the long weekend coming up, get your teeth into it. Certainly worthwhile. Regards Styria...

I was going to elaborate on this subject as part of our Honda Jazz which we bought in March 2013, priced at $20,500.it is quite a bit of a special version, known as the Jazz Vibe S, with some extras such as roof spoiler,15"Alloy Wheel, convential 5 speed Automatic (as distinct from CVT)...
