W123 200 auto. It was going to be broken and I rescued it so that it could live for another year. It was made in 1980 and made it to 1998 and covered over 230,000 miles.

I had been on the look out for one - viewed umpteen rotten 280s - as some 5 years earlier I used to see one in Aberdeen on the Nigg Brae in winter, and it looked a wonderful thing to be travelling in. Snug!
 
My first Merc 190E 2.6 ..Sadly had to be cut into a soft top to get me out following a RTA.

Replaced it with another 2.6 which I still have and get out now and then .
My daily car is a C32 AMG.

My first was a Triumph 2.5 PI ...Who remembers that old girl!!??
 
My first Mercedes is my current vehicle. ML350 "Sport", bring on the snow.

The first was an Austin Allagro, complete with square steering wheel. Being the first it had a hard life, several crashes, including ripping out the gear box and sump "off roading" down a track....
 
Only ever had two, the first being Mrs D's ML270 CDi. More than 6 years later we still have her. My C32 AMG has been keeping her company for 5 of those years now.
 
:)I am still with my first after 7 years, a great W124 E36 and love driving it so much.

1985 (C plate) W123 200 Auto Saloon, bought it in 89, not realy a youngsters car, but I was never one to follow the crowd. Wish I still had it. :(
 
The first I ever had was a 1984 A reg 500SEC in gloss black with Rial alloys and a D&W bodykit. I had it for about 5 and a half years before rust set in but it was great fun while it lasted.
 
Very first mercedes was a 207d van,have some great memories of it,never let me down once & kinda the reason i love mercs today

it was slow though, but allways got there:thumb:
 
My dad had a 190e when I was younger(18),he let me borrow it when I was taking the girlfriend out to a restaurant etc,I loved that car.

I tend to prefer older Mercedes cars but due to a tight budget and needing a car quick, I ended up with a newer model.

My first Mercedes and current car is a 1996 e230,it amazes me how well it drives considering it's a few years old. It would probably have been nicer as an automatic but it seemed such a nice car that I had to have it.
