Thanks.

More things added to list, you can send me some painkillers for my back when I do this later in the year.

Lol i cannot believe how heavy that valve body is! hard work when your working off the floor

 

[pmcgsmurf]

Yes, quite a pain doing it on ground.

Worth doing conductor plate too if it hasn't been done in a while

 

[merc85]

Lucky enough conductor plate was done last year around 2k ago

Well my girl got a oil and filter change last night 8.5 lts of Mobil 1 and a Bosch filter along with 2x Corteco Plugs and washers , 110,695 for the record 5k from the last one.

Cant believe i passed that Lambo with this on board

Finally got around to fitting a pair of New Bosch Wipers c/o C & G Motor Factors lol , and also managed to get in a quick wax before setting out this afternoon.

 

[merc85]

And then I bought this haha, I find them really useful and the car was missing hers.

Don’t worry I know which way round they go

I found one in my loft the other day, was from my first S211, if anyone else needs one.

Handy, yes - but with child seats fitted it was difficult to access. Ideal to hide bits away in and would be good for those odds and sods, brolly etc

 

[merc85]

My last estate had one and I always used it, very handy even wen the seats were up never found it a issue. Good to hide the kids I pads etc whilst shopping.

Funny, I removed mine first day I bought my car 10 years ago. Only remembered to put it back in when taking pics to sell the car. They are good to hide stuff up though, but for me just got in the way.

[merc85]

Well not much going on here...

 

[merc85]

Well I got her Mot’d as didn’t want a gap in the mot history, needless to say she passed with no advisories

 

[AMGeed]

Is the car officially not for sale anymore Gav?
Would be excellent if you keep her considering the work and ££ you have put into her.

 

[merc85]

I don’t know bud , my business is struggling at the minute, house sale isn’t looking to promising despite accepting a offer current times have really hit us hard So keeping all options open but I’m not actively seeking a sale of the car.

 

[merc85]

Quiet day at work so after we had changed the gearbox solenoid in my mates car I took a few pics of my 55

 

[merc85]

This lock down has got my household bored and one of my boys asked if he could polish the Merc hey it’s only a car now I told him if he dropped the cloth at any point NOT to continue but come and get me haha

 

[merc85]
