Would love to see some pictures.

This reminds me of a yellow W123 I have seen in a driveway for years. Today I stopped, got out, and looked at it. It is a 300CD. Both front and back left tires are flat and they look like they have been that way for a long time. Next time I need to knock on the door and see if anyone is home. I have often gone out of my way to pass by, hoping I would see someone outside. Never have. The car has not moved for a long time. I have always had a liking for yellow cars. Not small yellow cars but big classic yellow cars. I think it was inspired by the movie "The Yellow Rolls Royce" that I remember seeing when I was a kid. I'll have to get up my nerve and knock on the door. I suspect some old guy or woman will hobble over to the door and I'll have to shout so they can hear me. Maybe they will tell me to do them a favor and haul it away, especially when they see how well I take care of my car.
