PS - it has the straight window trims (like the South African ones I think S Class was saying), not the curved ones like most w116es.

Notice the seats have been recovered too. Not bad, just a bit grimey. But I was wondering where on earth is Batman?? Not the guy who wears underwear over tights, the location of the ebay seller. Searched google maps and the only place I could find was in Turkey.

Probably a case of a small suburb that has multipule names, we have a lot here like that, different people refer to the same area by different names.

Batman was named after the, I think sheep farmer, John Batman who moved there and settled the town. I can't believe I remember that from school:eek:
And are happy to stand corrected if I'm wrong, school was a long long time ago...

Indeed John Batman was famous for being the first to establish or sail to Melbourne from Tassie
