    1980s exhausts

    Seem to be hard to find. When I was running the W123, I completely failed to find one of the downpipes, and for the W126 I have now, middle section of the exhaust appears difficult to get. I guess more surviving W126s are V8s - although ISTR the figures that quite a lot of 280s were made...

    1980s SL. Practical classic or money pit?

    Advice please. Seriously thinking of investing in a classic SL (we call it the Hart to Hart one), but no idea whether this is realistic or a recipe for bankruptcy. What are your experiences and what price point, year, mileage is less likely to be ruinous.

    1980s Coupe..

    Hello, I am a student at the moment and have recently come into a little bit of money (less than £1,000). For as long as I can remember I have wanted to own a Mercedes Coupe! I'm not really into trends and especially not the irritating 80s trend that all students my age seem to have embrassed...
