And i thought my year started badly! What a beautiful motor, What a shame! But remember almost anything is repairable and that is definately repairable... so get on and repair it a.s.a.p. It always looks worse than it really is and that motor is too nice to say goodbye to. See you at Brooklands then?

loving the 'before' pic of Benny's.
Looks so dark, nearly black.
199 is such a strange colour, no two 190s look the same in it.

I'm giving mine a go. Two owners from new, completely original apart from clear indicators and Europlates, full service history. Forget it's a diesel, it's just a nice 190. Ooh, I've got first time nerves. It's like the odd kid at school wanting to be liked... :unsure:

I agree Shrekky, our diesels are mean and cool. You've got the green colour harmonizing thing going and I've got the silver sleek thing. More reliable and economical, they just keep going. Shit, I need to be diplomatic if I'm going to get any votes!

My car. From this: http://z14.invisionfree.com/mercedes_190_c...?showtopic=3146

To this!

Posted Image

2.6 Auto, 040 black, black leather, 17" 40s, silly height, Cosworth kit minus rear spoiler, factory de-badge, annoyingly growly / rorty exhaust, illuminated vanity mirrors, OTG, 4 x headrests. The non black strip in the rear door window is being blacked out.

A couple of teenagers told me the other day my car was "sick," to the huge amusement of my 10 year old twins who now refer to the car as "The Sickness."
