The Others


Recommended Posts

Not surprisingly it would have a 3 pointed star :)

We'll start with a CLK55

There would be many to choose from (Mercs and others...)

I've got one of those, great whips!  I'm partial to the W210 E55 though I reckon its the perfect do everything car :)

I'm a bit obsessed with a mates recent purchase. 1970 Merc S on airbags. Such a cool thing. Love the interior, especially the dash with woodgrain

 

Great cars I have had 3 of them (250 S), not a fan of "bagging" them but each to their own :)

Cheap as chips too!

Go for one of these, airbags as standard (although for different reasons) and 6.3 litre V8!

Not so cheap... 300 SEL 6.3

Matey only paid $5500 for it, and in very good nick. I've always liked the style of them, especially another guy I know who has a black 'Finny'. Thats on bags too

 I'm not a big fan of airbags, yet each to their own. Cool cars anyway

I'm 2/3 of the way through stripping , restaining and varnishing mine. 

I'm afraid modern plastic and carbon fibre are a bit sterile for me. You wouldn't have them in your lounge room would you?

Oh yeah , the slammed look is for some , but once you mess with the factory suspension / tyres it's never going to handle properly.

But some are in it for the looks, I understand that plus the factory air suspension is bloody exxy to refurb.

I'd have one of these , and be smug in the knowledge  that no-one else in my neighbourhood had one or indeed had ever heard of one.

Too many to list…but I’ll try

Daily: BMW M4

Family: Audi RS4 wagon

Toy: Aston DBR1 or DBS, De Tomaso Pantera, Fezza 328, Holden VK Grp A or mini-tubbed XU-2, Jag E-type or F-type coupe, Lambo Miura or an obnoxiously loud Rx-3

can't believe old benzes are becoming considered cool!  I was way ahead of my time as a tyke.

the way they are made is awesome.  Bank vault thunk on all closing panels.  New ones are like tin cans in comparison.
