Mercedes-Benz S Class 5.5 S500 7G-Tronic 4dr ***XCLUSIVE BODYKT***07704445634 | eBay

I like it. It's a stunning colour blue they've used.

Not sure whether I'd want to own it / drive it these days but maybe 10 years ago I might have done.

I'd rather it was a genuine 65 though!

Not a lot of details in the ad for a ten year old muscle car that looks like it has a lot of history! Looks a bit like an automotive bodybuilder.

Purely a taste thing but I would prefer to have a big stick than a loud mouth these days and for me this car is the latter. Having said that I would have loved it when I was twenty. Says a lot about me in my twenties, I guess.

Imagine the cracks after a few 1000 miles in the bodywork

I like it. Shame the rear numberplate is a bad fit. Poor attention to detail.

All show but (relatively) no go. Not my cup of tea either.

I'll abide by the maxim, 'if you have nothing good to say, say nothing'.

Not to my taste at my age but I can see the attraction.

I would put people who do that to an S Class into a den of hungry lions or , shark infested waters with blood smeared on them.

A bit OTT.

One practical problem I see with that car is, you're just asking to be pulled. It's actually more attention grabbing than Sierra Cosworths were back in the day.

OTT, not at all.

This includes some of the total monstrosities you see in the West End of Londo theses days too. No tatse at all but, plenty of money to waste.

Not surprised as it has a wrap on it and you don't need to inform the DVLA about them

Seems odd that the DVLA doesn't want to know as surely it's the database the police use for looking vehicles up? How would they know that's the silver Merc matching the plate or a blue one with stolen plates? Seems a loophole.

 

[bob6600]

Because it's not classed as a permanent colour change I guess. Agree it is a loophole, will probably change in the future

Well, in case of the Merc there's no worries on that score. A blind man could tell it was a wrap!
