A hell of a beast this eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace
I love the fact it looks standard

I still think these are sinfully ugly - those headlights just really don't sit well for me.

Awsome!!!
Only thing missing is a decent set of Carlsson wheels

Mmmmm, I know, but apart from that what a car! I'm just sitting here wondering if taking the top line off the lights with "eye brows" or grafting a whole sedan front end on would do the trick nicely.

Still haven't ruled out one of these on account of the fact that they really are one of the Great Mercedes, still looking-thinking on this one......

I like that idea, heres a very rough attempt at shaving one of the lights:

YES! YES! YES!

It's looking like an R129 front.

Can you work some magic on the frontal shot by any chance......??

That car is awesome.. but it seems there is an issue with the gearbox?

I am surprised at how good those 18" difda alloys look on that C140 - they seem to give the car a lighter, more modern look.

I might try a set on mine - does anyone know if they are compatable and a straight swap ? It might be cheaper than upgrading to a C215 CL500 ...

I tried, but my lack of photoshop skills made it look rubbish lol. I do think the 129 front end would have suited that car much more than the one it has.

Steering wheel on the ''wrong'' side but by heck I would otherwise have to fancy that car.
