Charles, I just wanted to say a belated thank you for your offer of help. Alas, in a shining example of impatience and changing desires, I have bought a Saab. One of the current generation ones with known parts supply problems too. Sure sign of mental illness, so keeping me away from your...

In terms of immediate, showroom type appeal, you are right for sure. I just wonder about the potential SBC spend, and the potential electrical reliability problems on an early, high mileage S211. For me personally, £3,500 worth of nice late 210 or £16,000 worth of my perfect late-ish 211 makes...

Charles, Kind offer, thank you. I would love to speak with someone who knows them well. I did see your post on another thread about putting yours up for sale, it could be perfect for me if it is a 7 seater? I live in Wiltshire (between Swindon and Bath) but bike into work in Paddington and...

Indeed, looks a nice one too, but I am focussing my search on a late 210 whilst I wait for my absolutely perfect colour/spec 08-ish 211 appear for sale. I figure a nice 210 stands more chance of letting me run it for 6 months, and then sell for not much of a loss. It also gives me a chance to...

Good afternoon all, New to the forum, and looking for a pretty specific specification car. I thought it would be worth putting up a wanted ad in case someone knows of, or is considering selling, the perfect car. I am after an S211 7-seat E320CDI, but I am being incredibly fussy about...

Afternoon all, I have been reading through the forum a lot recently, and I thought it was about time I joined and said hello. I am looking for a new family car at the moment, and as I have not had a Mercedes for almost 20 years (I had an E220 and a C180 as company cars in the early 90s), I...
