Tyler,

Your missing out, I don't see a W108 in your previously owned Mercedes vehicles. Do you have that on your bucket list?



Regards,

280SE Guy

Nice shot, too.

Good lord, I deleted it so it wouldn't turn into a discussion.

Someone posted here putting me down for some reason. Chasin' commented on the post before I used my mod powers to delete it rather than infract him.

Probably the 80 300SD. Lost money on it, and it didn't really wow me. ACII system, surprise rust. Ran and drove great though. I took it on a 400 mile roundtrip run without a hitch.

I've never come across a 108 worth buying. Looked at lots of rusty and neglected ones.

I regret selling alot of them.

C36 was probably the biggest regret. I'll never find one that nice, sorted, and cheap for less money ever again. It had a new wiring harness, rebuilt head, new headliner, and a bunch of other stuff along with being in excellent cosmetic condition.

I miss the 300SEL as well. I had it extremely well sorted and loved the color combo and cosmetic condition.

The E300 I'd probably still have if the transmission didn't crap out. In anger I decided to sell it after fixing it, wiping my hands of old cars as daily drivers, and its been flawless for the next owner.

When I think about it, though, I wouldn't trade any for my new VW GTI. Its just so much fun, and I don't have to worry about problems and maintenance for many years.

I wish I could have driven that C36, heck even the GTi looks like a ton of fun

Wheels on the GTI are factory. They are a bit blingy but I think look much better in person.

I've had the 500SL for just about 10 years. Grandma got it new, and it got me into this hobby. It is pretty much priceless to me.
