There isn't anyone near me with much interest in older vintage cars net alone MB's.

It is just you guys in the forum (which I'm not sure what I'd do without, seriously. I wouldn't have the privilege of owning an MB I think) and my 2.5 year old son. He sits in the drivers seat turning the wheel making all the right noises and even has the dak dak down to a fine art sounding like a 617 whilst I'm under the car.

I think it is just layback40 here and myself here in Australia but Layback40 is at least some 600 miles from me.
A good days drive away !
I seldom get to Sydney.
Way too much traffic.
My cars would get claustrophobic in such a built up place!
