You might even find yourself swapping cars with her to "fix" her car, more often than necessary.

Yeah I'd never get a 4Matic......I am pretty set that a 93-94 300E is the vehicle I'd like to find....we'll see how it goes. I am sure I could handle the maintenance without much issue. I've done essentially ALL possible jobs to the W126....

First I need to get her junky toyota sold.....they seem to go for good amounts....we'll see what I can suck out of somebody for it.
