- 420SE and 260E
Morning all, a long time since my last post and the scrapping of my beloved but bedraggled 420se!
Since then I've purchased a 1990 W124 260e saloon in black with only one owner and 50k on the clock, and a 190 1.8 manual in white with only 98k on the clock.
I'm now purchasing a 1992 300 diesel estate with 161k and, more importantly no MoT, tax, V5 or service history! I know, I know! I shouldn't but for £450 it's worth a punt, no? The car is structurally and mechanically sound with virtually no rust whatsoever and after being stood for about eighteen months starts and drives with no issues. The interior is very good indeed, grey leather, with very few signs of wear.
How can I load up some pics for you? Can anyone please advise? I will be taking the car for MoT next week so I will let you know how I get on!
