Six-cylinder Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Truly outstanding, I love the shape of the coupé but I still have the 200TE which is giving excellent service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HillmanImp Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 That is an ace looking car, its giving me a bit of a wedge. I was looking at Mercs but they are popular with drug dealers and Rachman like landlords round Bradford way innit, so I bailed on that as it was not a look I was going for.

And baddies in a lot of 80s films. Mercs need saved from people like that. Come on man, do your bit. Take a Merc into your life or you're condoning Hitler. nrm69 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssDeeWon Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 A recent feature on PH as SOTW. http://www.pistonheads.com/doc.asp?c=162&i=30710 Sorry to copy and paste a PH link but this is an exception I feel. I think the featured car was up for £995, so I read in another article this week. *edit Its up for sale for £950 in West Mids. Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyW201 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Flippin Wow like! Welcome to the '80s Brown Merc with 8-hole alloys and lowered suspension' club Mr Shitpeez! That looks fantastic Sir, especially with the SL alloy upgrade. As mentioned, might be worth seeking out a VIN checker for the option codes, looks like it may have the sportline chassis upgrade. garethj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forddeliveryboy Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 A brown Merc designed by Bruno Sacco. Perfect. Where did the wrong front indicators go? Could do with one! Mate bought his 300CE back in Spring and has covered over 10k since, all it has needed is just a new balljoint, a glow plug and a couple of oil changes. He's averaging 45, even though he sits at an indicated 90 on the motorway when possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richardmorris Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Putting the VIN number in here will list the specification as ordered. http://www.neoriginal.ru/cat/mb/ It looks great - the colour suits it, and cloth wears better (well I would say that, mine has grey cloth too). What's the mileage? Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNWeigh Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 You must feel like the bloke driving the elephant in the advert, that's fuckin' epic.I love W124s of any flavour with slightly bigger standard looking wheels,although I can't help feeling that a man,bound to have been a man ,girls don't buy brown Mercs, that would choose standard cloth over velour or leather would have ordered steels with shiny edged plastic trims originally. Hopefully one of those Ruskie vin decoder sights will tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
