C215 Mot

[StevePF]

Well having now changed the brake pipes on the front my CL500 now has a mot and is taxed. Ready to use so will go for a run tomorrow.
It’s been off the road for 2 years and now has been returned to service

Oh I’m sorry.. what did you want pictures of?? All the bolts holding the inner liners on? Or taking the front panel and blower out to get to the brake pipes?? Or do you want the MB part numbers of the repair items and flaring tool used. The job took me 3 days to do. Would have been 5 days if I was bothered about filming it. I ha e taken a cl500 c215 and put it back on the road.

It was clearly a request for pictures of the car by a Mercedes enthusiast who was showing their pleasure at the vehicle being returned to use again.

Your arrogant sarcasm is uncalled for.

In the posters' defence I would guess the poster is not familiar with this site, ie regulars often ask to see pics in order to praise them. Potentially, a genuine misunderstanding I guess?

For the record, in no way am I having a go at you, DSM10000 but just my perpective

That doesn't justify the juvenile response though

As other have commented, rather a "Techy Reply" I was looking for the Inaugural Photos of your CL500 now back on the road after being off the road for 2 years!

Oh sorry thought this was for enthusiasts. Should have posted in another social media account to be called juvenile while having the expertise to restore one of these cars. Will be leaving this childish site. As I would like to discuss with fellow enthusiasts. Not stupid comments that have been made

Now who's being childish!

Pathetic response. You were arrogant and you were called out for it and instead of apologising for your behaviour you blame others.

Go and throw your toys somewhere else, you won't be missed!

Another very "brave" keyboard warrior who wouldn't dare speak to people like that face to face.

Close the door quietly!

Not bothered about the hand bag war, just really pleased you've saved another C215 as they are magnificent cars and still miss mine. Well done

Kind regards Matt
