l8rz Mercedes Brown Car.

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.

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.

Putting the VIN number in here will list the specification as ordered.

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?

Cheers for that fella, that's awesome. I'll check it in a bit.

Mileage is about 124k. Not too bad really. 6k a year or so from new ish?

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.

Scotty, have you seen that one on Canal Road?

It's outside that boarded-up pub, with stabbed tyres and a mossy exterior.
