If you want to see pics of our 116s, you need to go no further than this google site. What is even better, you can click onto each picture, click onto the webpage the picture is featured on, and honestly you can go on a magic carpet ride with an unlimited supply of further pictures and...
Hi Timmy, what's that pole sticking out from the roof of your car - I've never seen anything like it. Did you put it there ?...and yes, your number plate, as detected by hawk eye Helmet, certainly needs re-positioning. Other than the plate and the pole, the car is looking great. Regards Styria
Okay Timmy, here's a photo of the W126 workshop manual.
It is a very substantial and heavy book. I envisage that postage (an extra) would be somewhere near the $22.00 mark. Australia Post is NOT cheap I have to say. Regards Styria
Both in Astral Silver, both bought new some years ago. One has bonnet star missing, looking for about $35.00 plus postage. The other, undamaged, $70.00 Both cars still in original boxes. Regards Styria (Mobile 0428-50-1800). Cost of postage included.

Hi Mark, I have been wanting to reply to this post ever since whence you first posted. Then things got in the way, other matters came up and all the while the thread went further, and further down the gurgler. I can't believe it all goes back to January.
Yes, 6.9s can be tricky, and they...
Nothing to do with our 116s and 107s, but this has got to be one of the most ungainly and plain looking wheels on a beautiful CL500......
I spotted these on a bi-turbo S-Class. I tend to think that these are just about my favourite wheels - would they look alright on our cars ?
Same wheel...
Just getting back briefly to off road vehicles, and Unimog, the following pictures to some extent illustrate the diversity of the Unimog. Again, all pics taken at the dealership. The following is an Army vehicle.
The next two or three of the orange Unimog - I think it was a council vehicle...
If we're talking about the Steyer, there are a couple more pics that I managed to snap at the dealership in Graz.
A shot of the busy, but functional interior - somehow, I just like 'industrial designs, boats and trains and planes.......of course, this is just a car...

Hi Geoff, it's remarkable that you should mention the Steyer, and me liking it. I recall in the mid fifties when that company pitted the Steyer, or the Haflinger as it was known in those days, against the icon of WWII, namely the jeep. On a specially prepared proving ground, they paired the two...

It is strange, but this Company rarely seems to get a mention in local Mercedes circles. I have established this thread (with the help of Motec 6.9) in an effort to preserve its details in our Websites and Links section purely to stop it from...
Hi Geoff, you will talk about Carlsson wheels prices - this is what I spotted at the Mercedes dealership in Graz, Austria. Check the price - second hand !

Just to get back to less exoting posts. Ever since the old Super Petrol was discontinued, I have been using Ron95 petrol, with an occasional 'sprinkling' of 98 grade. Just recently, I decided to take GB to a 'real' mechanic just to get the old girl checked over by someone 'that knows'. I had...

Geoff, I don't mean to steal your thunder, and please accept my apologies in advance. As part of the overall revamp, and the TK super highway of knowledge (!!), this thread will be put into another section in due...
....and the guy is running around with his 'Nighty' on - half his luck. At least I can look at his collection - of cars. Enjoy. Regards Styria

N.B. Amazing what the brown liquid will do for you.
How could one resist to actually get to know a Ferrari - I couldn't, and I promise it will put a smile on your lips.

Well, the Maybach has been discontinued, so retaining this feature for future reference is of some importance. Regards Styria
