W124 E36 Estate

[500E]

Reasonable at £10k(?). No idea about the value of these cars, but around 12 in the UK sounds like they are pretty rare? Looks like a very comprehensive specification aswell.

Terrible website!! So slow, I wonder why they bother with such a techie website when all people want to see is good pics of cars for sale!!

Nice looking (eventually) car though!

Thats a real beauty

Website was slow for me but only when I was getting the first picture enlarged. Then was quick thereafter.

They have set the site so all the pics download full size before the thumbs open....I suppose that might be bad practice
for slower connections.They have my favourite car....

Do you think you get the imitation sheep with it??

I see that they also managed to sell Jeremy Clarkson's old AMG - I wonder just how many of those have been registered in his name just to add a few quid to the price?

This must be the forth or fifth time we've seen one

Hi all - my first post on this forum! I am active elsewhere but never knew this existed... having had a gander around I decided to hit the "register button" when I stumbled across this thread.

I purchased an E36 Estate from these guys 4 weeks ago.. but NOT the one for £10k as advertised.

I have been hankering after for what I might describe as my perfect usable W124 estate... and after a coupld of false starts (£7,000 asking prices for cars with rust & damp in the usual places etc) I did then enquire about this particular £10k car, but was put off slightly by the mileage...

So, Neil @ Hairpin suggested I await a couple of weeks for another one he had coming in.. 78k, single owner E36 AMG Estate N Reg, 7 seater, all bells & whistles. Mine for £12,000. Neil sorted out all the gremlins I identified, including the rear seals rust issues etc. He didn't even have to advertise it. Genuine UK car, with all MB bills and original bill of sale.

yes these are rare - only 12 were offically imported RHD by MB dealers... I am a happy bunny! Look out for it in "Mercedes Enthusiast" and of course my continuing requests for "who services these nicely" help !!

all best

I agree. It's speed is OK on my machine but it's hard to read & you can't open anything in tabs. The site blows.

P.S. Hi Joey, recognise the name from the Official Club site.

Hi Neil, yup that's me! I made the decision to keep my logins the same so people actually *know* I cross post from time to time.. It's good to spread the love around!

Bobby... I'll await a good day to take some pics... stay, boy, stay!
