    R129 Autobox issues / Rebuild

    Thank you. I’ll give D class a ring and price it up, the hoods in ok condition but just beginning to look a bit tired in the fold areas so although ok I may replace the whole thing. Thanks for the tips 👍

    Any R129 owners had a new soft top in Sussex?

    My soft top rear window is in great condition but the stitching has begun to come away on one side, I’ve messaged Cayman in Redhill but wanted to know if anyone has any experience of a company local to Sussex. I’ve also asked for a price to replace for a new soft top.

    R129 aerial issues...

    Taken the unit apart and going to clean it all up. I need to test the motor somehow to see if it’s still working and then I’ll put the aerial back together. The mast seems to also have one section stuck fast and won’t extend. I’ll try and soak it and do a bit of googling.

    2 cars, one driver insurance deals??

    I’ve recently just had quotes for my two cars. My previous insurer elephant reduced my renewal premium by £1.18!! Thanks... So obviously I went online and checked around.. Esure came up best for me this time with multicar policy, I also rang them up to ask a question but it worked out cheaper...

    Are any of your former cars still alive?

    I also had an old 190e that I sold several years ago. She’s still MOTD and on the toad, was immaculate inside but the paintwork look liked someone had washed it with a Brillo pad close up.
