Just had a ride down to Jay's with my brother to pick up his CLS 300 which was in for a bit of fettling.

Big thanks to Jay at Mercland for helping my brother today to get himself a fabulous Mercedes.
Sorry I could not be there Jay, had a very important date with a Vulcan in Southport and I must say she was lovely, as were her escorts. The Red Arrows.
Ill let Bob put pictures up himself later.
Don't know about you guys, but I watch far more shows on YouTube channels these days than actual TV, each Sunday/Monday morning the next episode of the excellent Jay Leno's garage is uploaded.
This week, his Mercedes 600:

If you dont mind me asking, what sort of ballpark figure would a clean W123Ce like that set you back?
A great big thank you to Jay and his great backup team (family). A very well put together, get together some really good burgers and sausages on hand by Jays Grandad.
