I now have even less faith in mankind.

Words truely fail to describe this weary patched together horror. Surely none of you will take the side of the owner on this one.

It's like a black (white?) hole where happiness and sunshine goes to die.

I had no idea there was a coupe version of the W124 with a V8 installed. Or did this owner do a custom install?

Not my cup of tea...

Edit: Oops, just read that he did the swap for the V8

HANG ABOUT!!!

I've just thought of something - is there any proof that a member of mankind actually did that to that unfortunate Mercedes?

Don't give up on mankind just yet Jive Turkey! Wait for confirmation first...

Notice the lone top down pic is a different car.

Looks like the owner sprayed glue on the car and drove through a Pep Boyz accessory aisle.

Good one. Good eyes on the "top down" pic. Anyone notice the random canvas glued to the outside of the A pillar?

This thread is picking up steam as well.

Funny moment happened a second ago.
Ma: Looks like that car's been bent over and raped. There's not a single thing worth saving.
Me: Maybe the radiator cap?
Ma: I'd be suprised
