Well, we can only dream - well, in my case anyway. This is a most informative and well presented comparison. Enjoy. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PckC81-a0w

Move over SLS AMG ? Well, I wouldn't dare to suggest it. Mind you, the styling of this latest Mercedes creation is quite stunning, and it would appear that the gullwing doors open up to quite a spacious interior catering for rear passengers as well. All this info gleaned from Winding Road...

Reading this story, I certainly would not like to lend my name to the title - one should remember that it was the year 1947, a mere two years after Germany had been pummelled into submission. No, what I find far more remarkable is that, I think, 1952 witnessed the birth of the 300B Adenauer...

Road Test conducted by Autocar when the car was new in 1979.Some comparisons on several fronts with some competitors makes interesting reading. The most glaring observations are today's values of the Ferrari and Aston Martin - values we can only dream of, yet for everyday use the 6.9 would be...

I couldn't get there this year, but a short video is the next best thing - courtesy of "Winding Road". Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?utm_campaign=Weekly+Email&utm_content=WR77+4&feature=channel_video_title&utm_source=email-301&utm_medium=email&v=axGXbiffjvQ

What an awesome machine - I saw the 'normal' S-Class version in Graz, Austria at the Mercedes Benz dealer. Second hand, fabulous condition with an option list as long as your arm. However, this is the latest model. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJHhyAwiz1E&feature=related

Just so much undervalued and, at times, maligned. If the truth be known, they keep their age extremely well, and I have seen the one in Helmet's showroom which is absolutely magnificent. It is for sale and anyone wanting to buy a first class example of the Ch. 126 series, this would be close...

Thorough evaluiation and appraisal of this fantastic model. I wouldn't mind grabbing one - if I was a bit younger. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-CS1odwMVM&feature=related

I am posing this query in relation to my 1989 420SEL. The new battery, according to Invoices, was installed some three years ago, and whilst there appear to be absolutely no problems, surely the time will come when it will have to be replaced. Thus, the question I have is this : Would it be just...

I decided, as I do each year, to attend this year's concours. Again held in Parramatta Park, but in a different location, there was a huge amount of space in which to display the cars - the whole area was well used in which the cars were displayed, and the only criticism I have relates to lack...

I guess that I have to some extent hi-jacked this information from a thread started by Geoff (Motec6.9). Geoff, I hope you don't mind if I take it a bit further. This website says that it has photos and details of all cars ever produced (am I reading it correctly ?), and the range of cars and...

Extremely powerful, but also quite complex cars. I knew a guy in the Club that sold his because 'it was too fast'. Interesting. He also beat me in an Economy Run, not only on actual liters per 100, but also on ton kilometers per 100. His SL500 weighed more than Gleaming Beauty. Incidentally...

Don't know if anyone is interested, but through the good offices of Motec 6.9 and Supercars Concept I found this link. There are some really fantastic cars to peruse, with full facilities (I think) to examine each car in finer detail by highlighting the one you would be interested in. Geoff...

Comprehensive details for the complete 1978 model range. Regards Styria http://www.automobile-catalog.com/make/mercedes-benz/w-116/w-116_sel/1979.html

I don't think we'd find anything more informative and detail potential for our Ch. 116 cars. The stream of information is virtually limitless. Regards Styria http://www.automobile-catalog.com/model/mercedes-benz/w-116.html

This may hold some interest for Helmet - after all, he DOES have a 220SE Coupe that I look forward to seeing at the concours this year. Regards Styria http://www.automobile-catalog.com/make/mercedes-benz/w-111_112_s/w-111_coupe/1961.html

Thanks to the untiring efforts of Motec 6.9, I am able to show the performance data as published at the time. Regards Styria http://www.automobile-catalog.com/car/1971/1567745/amg_300_sel_6_3.html N.B. It is of quite importance that the link hereunder be included as part of this road test...

I have been wanting to publish, or make available, the genuine workshop details about a subject much misunderstood, or we simply do not have the knowledge to get the system to work properly. Of course, it doesn't help if parts are no longer available, or alternatively, are priced at such levels...

Okay, so it is a Citroen with the V6 Maserati engine, and it is one car that BenzBoy would like to take a fancy to if given the opportunity. I have seen them in real life, in fact there was one at the recent Eastern Creek Classic Rallye, and I would like to dig out the photos that I took. I must...

Last few years, especially ever since attending Eastern Creek Rallies, I have become quite impressed by the sheer, shall we call it. vulgar beauty of American cars. The ones featured here are probably nothing special in any particular way, but nevertheless they still impress with their sheer...
