I just had a system done on my 560SEC. Detail here: https://www.classicjalopy.com/2021/06/560sec-performance-exhaust/

w wow your friend did well. most of us dream of finding such a barn find!

Yes its hard to work out which is the best 111. 220 and 250 have the early features styria describes. Wooden instrument cluster, nicer interior fittings etc. There is little to separate 220 and 250 other than the engine. Some 250 engines had problems when they were new, although these...

Another little job that made a big difference - having the P pillar trims fixed on my SEL. I don't think i"ve seen a car with more than 100k without these ripped unless they have already been repaired. W124s have the same problem. I also had a spring fixed in the seat and the taxi blocks...

I don't know, but I am assuming a build up of dirt/dust.

Yes, it was a partial blockage in the A/C drain line. On a humid day there was not enough flow so eventually the evaporator case would fill up with water and leak out the top!

Some more photos of the repair. Paint done now.

That sounds interesting! Thanks. I always wanted to do something like that for my 250SE to take to car shows with a photo and a few stats. What sort of resolution would you need?

Looks good. I was supposed to be there with my car but couldn’t last minute. A shame as it would have been good to blow up the picture for the garage wall.

Final prices, lloyds does not indicate if it passed in or sold.

Updated the original post with a few pictures.

I was told the other night that the MBCNSW aims to drive 107 C and R107s over the harbour bridge in a long line in November. If they can rustle up that many, should be an impressive sight.

Brian, was your loaner ‘AMG line’? I’ve been told that these cars have incredibly stiff suspension. Much more so than the real AMG cars.

I recently hit a kangaroo in the car and it is being repaired.

I’ve been the owner of this car for about the last ten years. Basically for those not familiar with the model, the 220SE coupe came out in 1961, at the Geneva motor show where it was somewhat eclipsed by the Jaguar E-Type. A shame as it’s probably Mercedes most attractive post war design and...

The green one is in the lead with only a few hours to go:

I attended this event with the MBCNSW. https://www.classicjalopy.com/2021/05/national-motoring-heritage-day-2021/ I managed to park next to a 300SL Roadster!

Not likely! But they are still nice cars. I like 6.9s, but I already have a 560SEL and there are other cars I would be more interested in if I was in the market right now.
