Thanks Borys! Don’t stop, honestly keep doing the odd bits every now and then. I think the next 10/15years, cars like these will be pretty hard to find in nice condition and with everything turn “green”, they’ll be great breaks from reality.✊🏾

Thank you, the comments are keeping me going!😎😎

Means a lot coming from you, I think your level of car care takes the lead🤣🤣🤣 Yeah, it’s a super simple fix and it’s guaranteed to hold the pressure from the supplier - I still need to add pictures.

Conductor Plate, Plug and damper valve got delivered today!

Ahahah, I’ll keep them coming! And thank you so much! I think watching The Patina Collective on YouTube has made me a bit more OCD to be honest. I wanted every possible detail like new but now, I want it better than new. I really want to bring this levels above than I originally imagined.

Thanks buddy, appreciate it!! I can’t wait either, should be a good summer!

Oil, Filter and Gasket arrived today from Mercedes Benz Glasgow. Just waiting for a few more bits and should be ready for the transmission/valve body service.

Thank you very much! I appreciate your comments, it definitely makes it all worthwhile! Sure, can always drop me a message and work something out! You’re going for the full marathon on the car, honestly, when you look back at it afterwards you’ll be happy you did. The car is looking is...

The last sensor I purchased for the “Accelerator pedal” was actually for something else. So, the accelerator issue remained. I spoke to the seller as he advertised it wrong (I also should double checked the pedal myself), but he actually gave me a discount on a pedal he had in stock so result...

The Valve Body just arrived. Will have a new conductor plate in the next few days and when it does come, I’ll give this a deep clean making sure the channels are all clear.

Also, the starlight headliner is complete! All the panels are back to together however, I am looking for new C pillar panels as the current ones I have could do with a change due to the sun beaming on them the past 20 years. It’s looks fantastic and can be simply turned on/off with the factory...

Yesterday I had a day off work and managed to get a whole bunch done. ABC is fixed! Using two compression fittings and new pipe (which has a bleeder screw), it’s back to working! A simple £35.00 fix including a tin of ABC fluid. I forgot to get pictures of doing the process as it honestly...

You take vehicle care to a whole new level. The undersides of each car look immaculate! Is this a mixture of ice blasting and powder coating? Congratulations on the S65 - I was a fan of the previous S600 you had, I think it was 10/10. Can’t wait to see what you do to this.

Also, whilst doing all of this, I went to turn on the car and raise the height to save the pain in my back. When I did this, I noticed a puddle forming around the rear left tyre so turned off the engine and went to inspect. As I was looking at where the leak was coming from, I noticed the rear...

I’ll post better pictures once I’ve finished putting all the panels back in and got the fibre LEDs completely flat and flush.

And whilst doing this………….. I wanted to do something new and the first for the W215 (unless proven wrong)… Starlights in the headliner. This took a stupid amount of time as I couldn’t take the headliner out of the car due to the loom glued on all round. I think it was 18hrs in total drilling in...

Last weekend, I finally changed the Sunroof and finally have a fully working sunroof. What I realised is, there are no write ups, disassembly guides or pictures on how to remove a CL W215 headliner. I’ll make a quick list of where the headliner is bolted into so, for anyone else who is wishing...

**Update** Sorry guys, I haven’t posted here since August. To be honest, I haven’t driven the car since September and kept it parked on the drive. I noticed the transmission starting to be slow to engage in P R N D. Changed the oil but no change so it looks like the valve body needs to be...

I’m looking to remove the Headliner to get to the sunroof which I’ll also be looking at removing too. Any help or step by step instructions I could be helped with? Looking to do this midweek next week. Thanks
