Prior to heading down to Dirleton for the excellant GTG, I called into Mercedes Edinburgh, situated at "Newbridge Luxury Car Village" on the western edge of Edinburgh to collect two triangular doobriedoos which attach to the ends of the seatbelt arms. You know what I mean...
I wondered why the parts guy was wearing a black mask until he presented me with the invoice - £32.00
. They used to be a fiver and when I enquired about a discount he looked at me as if I was mad. I was still in a state of shock when I tottered into The Castle Inn where the superb lunch cost slightly less.
Adjacent to the plush Mercedes showroom Car Deal Warehouse have set up shop flogging the fag-end cars that don't quite cut it in the showroom.
Looky here:
No, your eyes do not deceive you and it's not photoshopped. £5995 for a mongrel motor. Facelifted front end, 1993, 114k miles, manual seats and ordinary a/c.
Actually, apart from some scuffs and peeling lacquer on the bumper/valance, it's nicely presented - but they're 'avin' a giraffe...
