look at that

Might as well see Enrique as my guy told me a 83 500 sec was too old
& if you owned one you can't be worried about how much it costs
LOL
Well, I'll try
its not like I put mega miles on cars
but my shop does seem to know what they are doing & are good
but some shops don't want the older benz's

Get it registered no 1

then get it home

thanks for tha start info

first thing is to get the battery up to par
It won';t be fun to take her out & have it not start for the return trip
but guess thats what AAA or the MB service is for

He said he'd put it in charge last night
hope he remembered


Gosh don't know if they have hood locks
guess it should
he left it in front last night so we could get it out today
Just hope it was fine last night

he'll have to rig up the plates guess some wire can do for now

I'd like to take it out
but want to get it looked at
a little late

but once the battery is up it should be ok

its a diehard looked fairly new but I guess the car has sat a while

Excited

She or he has alot of nice goodies
when she was running she was quiet but sort of sounded like a turbine
kind of liked the sound

headlights did adjust he did that
all sorts of lights and the beams went up & down controlled from inside
reall nice

He knew about the Euro guess he was doing some research
just hope she passes ok in future
smog looked really good well under limits

oooh he said it came w sheepskin covers
I;ll get them well I should
guess that protected the leather
oooh & a beige car cover too
that's $100 worth of goodies right there
& can't forget the dual makeup mirror & lights on both visors
LOL
a must for the CA girls


LOL

The car is loaded & almost worth more inparts than whole
LOL



Well wish me luck

Thanks again
"Makeup mirrors" hahaha

But they don't have what everyone REALLY wants. CUP HOLDERS

(But performance parts have good ones, I got one, with wood trim, for the door!)

PERFECT, BUT THEN I DROPPED MY LIPSTICK INTO MY COFFEE!!!

None of this happened. You just dreamed it did.

Then you woke up in a puddle.







Just kidding.

You had better call Enrique first. He is pretty popular, and may not take people without an appointment. Especially ones he does not know.
Read the stories about the guy, he is VERY popular because he doesn't charge "book rate" only as long as it takes.

And his rates are not expensive, but he does Mercedes only and knows the SEC very very well. They say he will NOT fix stuff that doesn't need it.

And has been fixing Mercedes for a LOOOOONG time, used to be the manager of the Sewrvice Dept at Beverly Hills Mercedes Benz a dealer whose customers would not suffer gladly,fools and boors.

I need to take my car down there to this guy, I have been thinking about that for a year now. I need a vacation bad and I want him to look at the antenna, sunroof and airconditioning on the car.

Ugh I will have to drive to LA with no airconditioning from here, I will be sweating like a whore in a hot tub by the time I got there. But I might get to have lunch with some Mercedeshop friends when I am there. Stay a couple of days if I have to in some motel.

Good luck. Hopefully you will get the car transferred without trouble, and come out with a set of license plates for it today!!
