Red S1 W126 anyone? https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/north-epping/cars-vans-utes/1985-mercedes-benz-380-sedan/1180419637 $3900 Looks in decent shape for the price. Unusual to see a 380 with plastic hubcaps

500SL 107. In my view the best of the 107 SL's as the 560 looked over done with the various spoilers, 3rd brake light etc. https://www.pickles.com.au/cars/item/-/details/CP-01-82--Mercedes-Benz--SL500--Convertible--4-Seats--2-Doors/3020065667 Car looks ok from the fairly poor quality...

In the theme of rough P5 Coupe's coming into the market here is the latest. This one is a better proposition than the last but would still need extensive refurbishment to body and wood, no mention of mechanicals: "1962 Rover P5 3.0L Mark 2 $4,000 4506 Regrettable sale, meant to be a bit of a...

Now contrast this MKIIC similar to the one I sold styria. This guy wants $1,000 and its probably worse than my old one: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Rare-1966-rover-coupe-low-kms-CAN-DELIVER-no-reserve-/253511450570?roken=eLe0Nf

There is a rather nice P5B Coupe on carsales. Makes that blue one that went for about $14,000 at the flynn auction a real rip off compared to this one at $19,990. https://www.carsales.com.au/dealer/details/Rover-35-LT-1969/OAG-AD-15782645

This weeks car is a very clean Petrol blue 450SE, a rather under-rated colour. While the condition of the drivers seat cannot be ascertained due to the sheepskins, the rest of the car is quite nice (not perfect, but nice). I would be happy to have it in my garage (sans wheel arch trims)...

https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Citroen-DS-23-1973/SSE-AD-5310651/?Cr=1 This is a good honest DS23 for sale. This car is owned by a club member near me and while this car is not perfect, it's a car that can be enjoyed as is, or spend a bit of money to do some cosmetic work...

The auction room is only a few bus stops from my office, so I went down at lunchtime to have a look: http://www.classicjalopy.com/2018/03/2018-shannons-sydney-autumn-classic-preview/

The Saloon looks nice with the two tone paint you added. That Lagonda is an impressive machine. Granted 1450 pounds was a lot of moneyh in 1964, but that car I am sure is worth a lot today. I wonder if any of those three saloons ended up at the flynn auction? There were a few 3 liter...

I certainly can't top the 3am/4am posts! Its funny how even similar cars can have a big impact on this. For example, the W116 looks great in yellow whereas I think the W126 looks rather silly in yellow, like a big banana. I understand why car companies moved to the soft visors, but the...

I found a few more photos of the MKIII

I think you made the right choice changing from the white to the admiralty blue. The colour scheme of the MKIII is rather dignified and I don't think white suits the P5 - especially the coupe with the large painted areas compared to windows etc. Good to see the photo from way back when...

Very original MK III Manual overdrive coupe with webasto sunroof https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C788155

http://totalcarmagazine.com/classicandbeloved/2013/06/10/mercedes-benz_560_sec_1990/ It wasn’t the biggest of all S-Classes (that title goes to the next one in the row) but for many it was the best. And at the pinnacle of the Mercedes line-up of the 80’s sat this car. The big coupe with the...

Rover P5 Classic Review: https://www.tradeuniquecars.com.au/news/1703/rover-p5-–-today’s-budget-tempter These are big luxurious cars – big enough to carry four six-footers in comfort - much favoured by the former Queen Mother in the UK, who is said to have ordered two when she heard...

A few more reviews: Motor Sport magazine, October 1966: https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/october-1966/66/older-men Rover P5 3 Liter Mk III Coupe OLD age is a miseralsle business, as the late Somerset Maugham so graphically explained. Sight and hearing are impaired, the...

Looks great Styria. I'm sure with all the parts from the wrecked car you will turn that cheap flynn 3500S into something really nice. Please keep the updates coming.

This one is a nice example of a late production DS. https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Citroen-DS-23-1974/SSE-AD-5174813/?Cr=6 The DS23 i.e. was the most powerful. This one comes equipped with a borg warner 35 automatic which is common in Australia but very rare worldwide. Citroen...
