    Putting a W116 on stands

    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...

    Wheels for w116

    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...

    A Steyr For Styria

    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...

    A Steyr For Styria

    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... Regards Styria

    A Steyr For Styria

    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...

    Sleeping Beauty Restorations

    http://sleepingbeauties.com.au/highlights.html 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...

    What fuel do you use

    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...

    Black is beautiful - Gullwing

    The condition of this car is just unbelievable - judge for yourself. I remember, back in ASustria in the '50s, I had my cold, snotty nose, pressed hard against the showroom window of the Mercedes Benz Dealership - it housed a red 300SL Roadster. I've never forgotten that. When I went back six...
