LoL - I think it is clear that I don't drive daily! I travel a fair bit for work (trains and planes) so my C240 has spent a good amount of time in my garage. Now I try to drive my C63 and my wife tends to drive the C240.

(stripping started today hope to have it resprayed in 2 weeks ) i get things done quickly but a quality job too!

How do you Euro Style a European car?

Is that a genuine question? I thought most people knew what euro styling is. Bassically, you put it on coilovers and get the camber set up right (the right stance) followed by fancy (decent) wheels alot of the time they are BBS splits with a stretched tyre but you can do it with bentley rims on audis etc, followed by a simple bodywork to make it look clean but not too far from how it left the factory, smoothed bodywork, no disgusting bodykits etc.

Simple body work
Stance
Wheels

thats the 3 basics I would personally say

My point is, the car is European already. how can lowering it and changing the wheels give a car which is Euro, Euro look?

Thats like getting a Dodge and giving it a US look!?!

 

[gunning]

haha, i do agree with you, but thats just what its called.. beyond me why as what you say makes sense. Time to google it

You should not feel embarrassed.
Be proud that you have a good car that is still working long after most cars have given up.

I've a 1999 c230k auto that's passed 141 000 and is still going strong, it's had a lot of abuse (used as a farm vehicle, a hard life), yet it's 100% reliable and still drives better than most new cars.
