Do not like the colour or the wheels.

Except for the stance, it looks great!

Not sure about the pattern for the rear seats. Have they been recovered?? If the front looks the same they'll be pretty horrible! Strange there's no pix of the dash and front seats...

I'm surprised it doesn't have an 'AMG' badge on the bootlid too.

OMG could they squeeze any more stuff under the bonnet? I thought our Aussie ones were bad with all our emission equipment, but it's nothing compared to that!

Hi Mark big black box is for the ABS. Geoff

Just some observations on my part. Firstly, there is no guarantee that it is an AMG. Sure, it has the body kits and the colour co-ordinated brightwork, but neither the wheels themselves nor the speedometer (the same as I have in Gleaming Beauty) are AMG adaptions. The car is sitting a little high in the back, but the side-on appearance clearly illustrates that MB got the styling really 'right' - take away the brightwork, and if what is left showing looks good to the eye, the styling is right. That, of course, is my opinion only. The rear styling of this car - can I detect a hint of the W140 ? Maybe so.

Mark, the back seat looks fine - it has the normal 116 appearance, and the quality seems good. To my mind, the curtains add a nice, unusual touch to the car. All in all, I do think that this is a very acceptable car to look at. Regards Styria

Hi Styria look at the add the owner makes no claims to the car being AMG . But does say it is the 286hp euro version . As for the wheels they are correct wheels for an AMG W116 as they are BBS rims that are listed in the AMG catalog. I have a AMG W116 poster at home and these are the wheels fitted not the Pentas. And Michel it is Milan Brown . Geoff
