Lets start by taking two classic mercedes and making one frankenstein out of it. What an eye sore. https://www.ebay.com/itm/223473657447

The princess that Styria posted earlier...

It is one of those odd questions why rover engineers made their air filter housing look like a muffler! It does give the six cyl cars a unique under bonnet look. Styria may be able to comment more if it is a good system. I didn't own my car for long enough.

This P5 Coupe looks like the same colour combination of the one I used to own. Its a much nicer combination when in good condition than when in poor. I like a good red interior, but would prefer a more striking exterior colour. This is a good contrast of the earlier 3 liter cars to the...

A nice P5B Coupe: http://www.duncanellison.co.uk/classic-car-stock.html

This is an example of a otherwise nice car with a silly ad: https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/Mercedes-Benz-560SEC-1986/SSE-AD-5731046/?Cr=5 The seller is claiming that it is a 'rare' Obsidian Black, when that colour didn't exist until the 90s was never offered on any W126. This car is...

This coupe is for sale in NZ, it doesn't look too bad, altough there is something a bit odd about that seat bottom. Nice car though. https://trademe.nz/motors/cars/rover/other/listing/1945780134 they are asking NZ$22k

To add further, I am also trying to work out in the diagram I have annotated, what is plugged in where on the regular K-Jet 450. On the Aussie one, A is vacuum advance, which means there is NO advance at idle, and peak advance at moderate throttle openings (i.e. cruising on the motorway) B...

For reference this is the vacuum diagram for the australian version, for model year 1977. these are the corresponding timing specs

Does anyone have a diagram of the vacuum lines for the M117 450 K Jet for the rest of the world models? I've got the vacuum diagrams for both the AU and US models complete with EGR and lots of retard built in. For reference mine is a 1977 model. Since the EGR is long since disconnected on my...

Its been a while since I have seen such a nice one. My sister had a 1984 240GLE, in a green colour that was a bit like the thistle green that Mercedes offered at the time. I had a 1985 230E mercedes at the time. The Volvo had a torquier engine and was a little faster (being lighter) but...

Matt did post a very good buyers guide on this model when he was more active on the forum: http://www.topklasse.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2663 I have to say that while I admire the engineering in the W140, I it is a model that I overall don't particularly care for. I personally think it...

This E220 Coupe is unsual for an auction car in that it has a full service history. https://www.graysonline.com/lot/0019-3439404/motor-vehiclesmotor-cycles/1995-mercedes-benz-e220-automatic-coupe the E220 is very economical, but I found the sedan version my dad had at one point rather...

This low mileage 560SEC looks nice. Terrible ad though, no mention of sevice history or anything that would prove the low miles. there are some signs like the needles on the instrument cluster still being orange and the interior that would make you think it might be true, but I would not pay...

Meant to post these after the RR show last October. This is a P5 Coupe that is under restoration. The owner has had it repainted in the two tone scheme and had the blue leather interior re-done. At the time of photos it was not quite back together with some trim missing, but I saw the car...

Start with a russian winter, add 3 lada engines, bolting the crankshafts together into a straight 12: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSVJFfVXip0 zSVJFfVXip0

I went by and looked at the lots today during my lunch break. As usual Shannons have done a nice job of assembling a range of cars to suit all tasts and budgets: http://www.classicjalopy.com/2019/02/shannons-sydney-autumn-classic-2019-preview/...

https://www.graysonline.com/lot/0041-3438443/motor-vehiclesmotor-cycles/1983-mercedes-benz-380-sec-automatic-sedan This 380SEC doesn't look bad. the 380SEC is a lot of car for the money normally. This one seems to have a ride height issue at the back and a pet peeve of mine, hacked up door...
