If I had the space I would seriously consider this.
Just looks total class!!, with some nicer wheels on I think it would look the business.
Nothing to do with me by the way!

Yeah, it's a nice one.

I think those wheels suite it just fine. What wheels would you suggest?

I just think the fronts look a little lost in the arches, There is a similar car up here that I see from time to time that has larger wheels and colour coded hub caps. Just looks great

No, I think the wheels are perfect. It is a classy original. Nothing to change. If I had the spare cash . . .

 

[lotusmark2]

Just had a reply from the guy and I think £2-£2.5K would buy it. Dont think the auction will close with a sale for much less.

Those are the original wheels surely?

Yes, those are the alloys of the 70's Mercs. Look at my sig and you'll see the metal hub-caps of the era. ;-)

I know the owner of this car and believe me this is one lovely motor

70's...??? You wore a gown of gold/I was all in blue/Am I getting old?/Not you, not you...Ah yes, I remember it well!

Just because I owned a 70's car, doesn't mean I remember that time. I was only 6 when my old Merc was made.

You couldn't pay me enough to put those on a car of mine.

Hello everyone, its my car, have not visited this site for a long while. If wheels are an issue i have a set of clk alloys that i had fited to it for a while, i have mixed feelings with the looks of it on its originals as opposed to the later ones, I keep blowing hot & cold over originality & looks.
It is a thumping good car for anyone in the market for one of these.
Make me a decent offer & its yours.

 

[fatherpierre]

She's a beaut mate.

I'm in the market for one. Yours a little too ££s for my wallet, though!

What's your worth?

 

[S.B.VARNEY]

Its up to you to make me an offer.

 

[lotusmark2]

Really love this car.
Must be a wrench for you to sell her mate

 

[S.B.VARNEY]

It is, especially given all the time & effot that i've put into it but i have my 500SEC in the garage that has not seen daylight for months, my new daily runner the SE & my
G-Wagen that i can't wait to get on the road & some mud.
It costs far to much with them all Taxed & insured + my Van so something has to give, it has given me an awfull lot of pleasure to own.

 

[fatherpierre]

My offer would be well below her value - so I won't even make it!

I've got my eye on a 1982 CE but have a 500SE and a 300SE, along with an XJ6 (Jags are great) so have to lose one to gain another...........

 

[lotusmark2]

It went for £1470 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If it was sold for that someone got a MAJOR bargain
