The 500E went in to have a Stone Chip Fixed

Thanks all..

That guy above can really talk! My explanation of tempmatic would have been "it tells you oil and ouside temperature"

That looks amazing. My SL needs a little work to the front and rear arches and as a silver car, I'm worried about paint match. Should I be worried if I use a quality body shop or is silver a nightmare even for top quality shops? Where is the shop Jay? Or is it a secret? ;-)

Beautiful job done there Jay, great to be keeping such an important classic running well and in such condition for the future, marvellous fun while your doing it also!

Only criticism I have, and it's most likely because I am such an old fart, is those Chavtastic wheels........otherwise it's a 11/10

Wow I am soooo jealous...

...what's the square black box just below the passenger's door release? Auxiliary speaker?

...wondering because I'd like to improve the sound quality in my W124 - the rear parcel shelf can take bigger units easily, but the options up front are rather limited.

Hi All,

The 500E front wings started to bubble again a few weeks back so repalced with brand new Mercedes wings.

Unfortunately we couldnt get the colour match right. Silver is notoriously difficult to match.

So the whole car has been done again!

The brabus wheels are off for touch ups so the AMG ones are on for now.

It still looks lovely.

Looks great. There is a switch that looks like a boot opening switch, is that what it is ?

Yes silver arrows brakes all around. Unfortunately they were treated for California not UK roads so now need to remove them and have them powder coated.
