Took my 1971 Mercedes benz in for a warrant Friday,.. 3 guys poured over it with a fine tooth comb, as they would with cars that age.  they had it for almost half n hour pushing, prodding, working the springs and bolts, ( gee I know eh! ) and spent a long time underneath,…  given the hell once over ,..  all they found was a slightly fraying front seat belt ,.back right hand brake needed adjusting, and that’s it ,..  ;D how cool is that. I drive it often and its held together wonderfully, I was so pleased,.. ;D ;D ;D  |

A wonderful 'oldish' lady .. she was built to last eh Misi.
Hope mine will be as trustworthy, but sadly, nothing is made to last nowadays.

I learnt to drive in a 220S, even then it was a classic. *sigh* I used to love all the other Mercs flashing their headlights at me, and not because of my driving LOL. Misi she is a beauty. |

Rather fabulous car there! I'm so glad that petrol has dropped back to merely exorbitant!
