I wonder if Michel took any pictures, or perhaps have some form of pertinent or enlightening comment ? I am always interested in his opinions. Regards Styria

Yes Bryce, thank you for your excellent pictures. Quite clearly, styling of the R and C107s is classic and will never age. I do recall that the Club had a Harbour Bridge Run probably the best part, if not longer, of 12-14 years ago. At that time, we started down in the Rocks Area, presumably...

Pictures of the exterior appear to illustrate that the bodywork is in nice condition. Where the gremlins start is with the interior which is showing many signs of unwanted wear and degradation. If you wanted it perfect as far as leather, upholstery, carpets and timber is concerned, add at least...

I continue to be amazed that Companies like Mercedes and AMG should be subject to what essentially are minor failures, yet result in huge repair bills as the components invariably are placed in most inaccessible areas from a repair or maintenance point of view. I think it is total negligence on...

Hi Bryce, I can vouch for the slowness of telephone response. I gave up after twenty minutes of trying. Later in the day, much later, my phone call got responded to after a 25-20 minute wait. I was all ready to purchase two of the Pirelli Dragon Sport which is rated at 300 km/hour. A little...

Well Sean, I have looked at the video AFTER I had initially responded to you. Now of course I know where your information came from. The video is really informative, and well presented by this person obviously highly qualified. I have watched about half so far, the rest a bit later. Regards...

Sorry Sean, but what's a Shelia ? I am glad that it looks as though you can make it....and Bev, your better half, I am sure she would enjoy some of my Continental Videos. They're very special, and I'll have that PC going just for her. Regards Styria

Sean, that's about what I need in my knees, the left hip, my neck on the right side and any other location you care to mention. BTW, where did you find that information - it certainly is ground breaking technology. Regards Styria N.B. BTW, you comin' on the 19th December (it's a Sunday).

There is no doubt that wheels "maketh the car", similar to "shoes maketh the man. There would be only one thing I would be concerned about - some of the cars one would not want to drive on the road. They are simply too low body wise - but, looks is everything . Regards Styria

Tell me Oversize, which 6.9 was it, and did you ever attend to those "shockers" ? .........and if you didn't, what happened to the parts, such as they are ? On the other hand, if you ever fixed the issues shown so vividly, how did you go about it. Regards Styria

It's uncanny that I have just come across this thread in view of the fact that just yesterday I posted details of chrome Bundts fitted to Gleaming Beauty as part of a recommissioning process that I am undertaking. I can in all honesty say that the ride, even with the Super Heavy Speedys, is...

If your two cars have self levelling suspension units at the rear, it could then be possible that the Air Pressure Cells (if they have them) are not functioning correctly. Perhaps you could advise or clarify if you have an Oil Reservoir located at the right hand front as seen from the front of...

Hi Bryce, did you ever sell those Bundts ? As I have indicated, they are quite difficult to come by nowadays, and I would suggest that perhaps you advertise on TK as you never know what will come of an innocent advertisement. I have in my own right some Bundts I will advertise, together with...

Well, well, well, what an interesting story. Interesting from my point of view as it illustrates the amount of damage that can be caused to the rear bumper bars of the 116s, and the cost of replacement parts as far back as 2009. The figures are staggering, but I also suspect that some of those...

I am not quite sure what we are talking about, but I was obviously interested in Sean's remarks on various aspects of what appear to be flawed engine designs. As some of you would be aware, I am quite familiar with the Rover 3500 V8s, some of which have found their way into Triumph Stags, that...

All this work that I am describing is part of what I do when doing restoration work. Gleaming Beauty has had all of that work done over the years, and it is the difference between my 6.9 and others that may be advertised for sale as being "the best", but have never been subject to a thorough...

The following pictures illustrate the rust proof paint and fish oil that I coat the underside of the bumper bars, and once fully dried, I then apply similarly coloured paint as done by Mercedes when the parts are new.

This is getting a bit complex, but I am hoping. Four pictures illustration the rust problems. Regards Styria

So far so good. The following pics. illustrate the "channels" I have referred to. The masking tape is applied to prevent overspray.

When I look at these pictures, I am more convinced than ever that the shape and uniqueness of body fittings clearly surpass those of the Ch. 126 models. I have mentioned this comparison before, but when the first 380, RED, owned by a next door neighbour appeared in real life, there was also a...
