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...

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/...

The red P6 sold for $7200. Not a bad buy for that price.

No. There are a few variants. The AU one has 178KW, the normal one has 200KW, and the high compression one 220KW (300hp). I'll post a bit more about the differences later, but the engine in Dora2 is the high output engine.

Didn't know Autobarn could do this, good to know. What are you using to apply the touch up paint without making the touch up stand out?

This is interesting, 7 series with 5 speed manual! https://www.lloydsonline.com.au/LotDetails.aspx?smode=0&aid=11467&lid=1775204&pgn=1&pgs=100

No high res shots yet, but took it out for a drive last night. Club Red.

My parents had one in a light blue metallic. It was a colour that was never common on the W220. It got hit while parked by a drunk driver and never drove the same. They had planned to keep the car for a while, but traded it in because of the way it drove after the crash. I drove it...

With a little work this could be a really nice car. Fix the dent, some new window seals and a few other misc things. A late SEL is a nice car to have. Sounds like its had good history, I wonder if the timing chain is done.....

There is a cars and coffee event at the St. Ives showground (Sydney) first sunday of the month. I stopped by today and also went in November. Its a nice informal event and worth stopping by if you're in the area. It helps its only 10 minutes from me...

This article covers a 1935 Packard Super 8 Coupe. This was when Packard were at their best and if I could wave a magic wand and have a packard it would be one like this: https://www.driven.co.nz/reviews/classic-cars/packard-super-8-coupe-a-taste-of-30s-high-life/ Collectors seem to like...
