Me too! My wife bakes a mean homemade mince beef and onion pie! Yummy!(Russians are very good at making pies!)
then continue to drive around in something crap!
W124 coupe. Lovely looks, a proper Mercedes and less of a money pit than the other MBs on my list
I didn't know they had dropped under 20K already.
Athough I've seen a lovely E63 estate on Piston heads for around £25k
The W140 coupe, 560 SEC and the AMG W208 are on my list, together with the Jensen Interceptor and Maserati Quattroporte.
What was wrong with yours? Or if it's quicker, what was right with it
How about rust, rubbing sound/crunch from one corner over bumps, knock from aframe when turnign right, dents and stonechips, interior retrimming needed to an extent, holes in the engine bay from rust, more rust, delaminated rear window so demister stopped working, central locking gone, switch for sunroof jamming, top of central storage box (that wooden slatted one) broken into, key fob gone eventually, boot not locking even with key, ticking engine (like diesel), coolant sensor gone, passenger window regulator and motor gone, AMG alloys which came with car too large but too expensive to replace, car began to shoot forward on braking, loud serious engine squeaking (not squealing) when slowing down without brakes, very squeaky brakes (though not worn according to everyone I asked???), oil leak, overheating, front heatshield on cat convertor rusted to nothing, top of steering wheel worn through leather, rear speakers no longer working, side windows scratched from some loose chippings caught on rubber trim, seriously stonechipped front bumper, hole in rear bumper from collision, and wiring harness needed replacing. All as-is when I got the car with 172k miles for £1800
