we've always been a euro car family being my familily is all from slovenia and croatia... i grew up with the Volvo's, the VW's, audi porsche bmw and, mercedes... but the thing i loved the most was when I turned 2 my parents got me my first mercedes...
this cute little W123 pedal car... well... not really a pedal car... it's a CE... I don't remember what the rest of the sticker said b/c it fell off and back then i didn't care...
steel body
battery powered
aluminum wheels
functional lights && REAL LEATHER!
I think that got me hooked.
its gold w/ black leather.
I have it to this day... and my plan is when i have the 240 repainted im having it done in the same color.
when i started my search i was looking for something around a 124 or a 140 but i settled for what i my pocket could handle...
and now i think its time i try and step up a bit and make the 240 my resto project... i may sound like a brat. but i seriously turned down a car b/c it wasn't an MB... (01 Grand Marquis) YUCK

i learned US cars well.. don't compare w/ my first car... (1995 poniac sunfire conv. ... gag me)
