Someone that I know of that lives around here just married this young lady.

Nelly

He is in his 80's. She had an age range listed but I suspect that went out the window when the Gulfstream showed up. He has a full time pilot to go with his fleet too. Anyway, she had a brand new Benz sitting in the garage when he brought her home. I did not hear which model it was. I know he had a 560SEL (W126) for years. He takes her with him on his business trips and thoroughly enjoys it.

Maybe you could try this route?

This is wife #5. All his wives have looked better than the previous one.

Wonder if she will find mercedesshop.com?

I haven't seen the whole thread but...

I once posted on here about a similar ordeal.

Think of it this way:
You're concerned about her. She isn't acting normal and you just want to help however possible. But you understand her feelings, and you sympathize with her. Let her know you're there if she needs you. Be a courteous gentleman.

I'm not you, it's your call.

OK. In this case, you have two options.

1. move on to someone else and forget her entirely.

2. wait a little while (maybe a week) and try calling her again (preferred).

I think the key is patience. I know you're probably feeling anxious about this. Things need to cool off for a bit. You need to get busy with something else (recreational activities) It's gotta be one of the hardest things to EVER do. It sux, big time. In the meantime, we're here for ya man at MShop!

And apparently engatwork's acquaintance hasn't figured it out in 5 tries. Watch out Liz Taylor!
