...and a $2800 repair bill!!!

Actually, about $2100 was the repair (did overdue "B" service while there).

Hydraulic pump motor burned out...can't buy seperately. Had to get entire pump and motor ($1200) + $921 labor.

So I spent more to fix the top on the wife's car than the top-end rebuild on the W124! We're eating ketchup packets for a few months!

Wife was happy that her car was back...I was weirdly pissed at the car (out of warranty six months ago). I refused to tag along with her in the W208...
