Front wings - they usually start to go in front of the wheelarch. Bolt off/on replacement.
Thank you for that. I'm still very tempted...
Anything mechanical I can fettle myself - not too much electronic wizardry, I take it - or pay a man to fettle, but my main concern would be rust. Are there any particular rust problems on these that I should look at closely?
This is pre loom issues so should be ok on that front. Originally it was advertised at £2995. I suspect it's now £3,150 due to the dealer trying to sort the misfire. They've had it a while wonder what a cheeky offer of 2.5k would get you! With the misfire sorted if you could get that sub 3k then you're in a win, win situation. I really love my SL only the 300-24 though.
P.s your old e55 is still running great!
Check the fuel pressure regulator. It was the answer to the misfire on my 500E. Also check the rotor arms.
Wiring harness must be checked, take some of the wiring sheath back and check for the wiring underneath. If it's crumbling and you have funny lights on the dash it'll need a new harness.
Apart from that would be rather bulletproof and cheap enough to take a punt on. I'd be tempted to check the roof for waterproof though with a hose.
Thanks for that. I haven't been able to get through yet, but I'll call tomorrow, I think, to see if the hood actually works. "Dunno; we've never tried it" will be the wrong answer...
