Oh my word ...

[glojo]

I'm afraid that if i do , i will buy it ....

My heart will take over and overrule my head ....

Which is why i am going to steer clear of this one.

I know exactly where yuour coming from and totally agree. The rumbler of the V8 is enough to turn any man's heart

I've got an absolute monster of a 430 to go and look at within the next week

Won't be quite the same rumble as a 55 , but it's still a V8 ...

No idea on mileage of the Iver Heath one .... sorry

Don't be silly, at least go and have a look at it.

2001 is that cheap tax also

v8 5.5 and two fingers to the tax man if it is

even if not, it is only an extra £25 quid

Mate, you were always the voice of reason before

It's a supercar for pocket money.

Who cares if it's got a few miles up it, strong cars, plus I've got one in bits so spares aren't an issue.

Why have UHT milk when you can have cream??

Too true, you only live once Howard!

 

[Smatt]

Btw, Howard, how are you getting on with the Saab & your 'minor' insurance claim, not to mention your necks?

Dooooooooooooooooo iiiiiiiiitttttttttttttttttttt!

I remember when you scoffed at the idea of a CLK55 when I suggested it

 

[andy_k]

go for it Howard

Dave


I thought the tax goes up to £400 plus after 2001?


If I were you don't go and luck as you probably will buy.


Pleanty about and your in a great position. Cash is king

 

[Vlad]

Is it me, or is it suspiciously lowly priced...£5995 for a 2001 CLK55?????...even if it has got 140k on the clock...does seem a bit low.

 

[Vlad]

Re tax, the higher rate tax comes in from the 1st March 2001, ie Y Reg onwards

 

[Adam230K]

Of all the cars marques that there are, the one i would worry about the least is a mercedes at high mileage.

Howard just go have a look at it and get a test drive, see how it feels, something might actually happen while you drive it and it'll put you off. Better yet, why not take a competent somebody with you to help you with your decision?

 

[Howard]

You lot are like a bunch of devils sitting on my shoulder ....

Still got the Saab , ho hum ..... good old diesel Saab .... i'll almost be sad when it goes ...

I feel a bit sorry for it really , because its ok , but it's never gonna have any love in it's life , it's just gonna get bashed around and have the life caned out of it , no one is going to care for it ....

So , with that in mind , i will give it a wash tomorrow. ..
