I went to pick my dad up from the town centre after his works Xmas do.
Parked down a side street in a rammed town centre I had six (yes, six!) separate pissed up people try and get in the car. So yes, it definitely looks like a taxi!
Does anyone want to buy this?? Lol
I've just been offered my old car back and I have no need for 4 daily's...
I will sell it very cheap to a CS member!
Your rust is very uncommon though no?
Mine is on 176k and still on original paint on every panel and there is not one spot of it anywhere.
With regards to the wheels, I put a wanted ad up on the Merc Facebook page and they all told me to steer clear. Maybe it's just exaggerated on the...
They're all reliable mate. I only bought this as it was a cheap px that came in at work.
On a recent trip to Exeter it did 30mpg on thevway down. (90mph, 4 blokes, luggage and beer)
On the way back we were incredibly hungover so I was doing 65-70 and had no beer in the boot, it was reading...
Just as good. I had a 320 petrol before this (borrowed off a friend, same spec and colour too!) and the mpg was more or less the same. But I did drive it like a granny as it wasn't mine and we agreed on a bend it/buy it deal.
No mate. It was an option on this model but standard on the estates.
They're bullet proof. On the Merc club I'm on, there's plenty on there with 300k+. Mines barely run in!
This age and mileage are around £2500-£3000.
He was a honky the bloke that had it before. Just commuted a long way! Lol...
The Coupe is going nowhere!
I was on the hunt for the 18's but every man and his dog has complained that they are made of cheese and buckle/split really easily so I decided against it. The do look so much better on them though.
I've had this ages (for me) so thought I'd stick some pictures up after a quick wash and Hoover after work tonight.
176,000 miles and looks/drives like it's done 20,000 miles. It's bloody lovely.
It's the older straight 6 engine and 5 speed auto as opposed to the newer V6 and 7 speed, but...
From what the OP is saying, the painter made him aware before he painted it?
I'm not really sure what taking it back will achieve other than the painter saying "I told you so" and shrugging his shoulders.
(Apologies if I've got the wrong end of the stick)
That's fucked mate.
You can either live with it or bite the bullet and put a new roof on it.
Sadly, the roof is a massive flexible panel and the filler will not like moving, hence the cracking.
