Hi all,

First, I am very pleased to introduce myself on this forum to meet other Mercedes fans. I would like to share my knowledge of Mercedes with you. In addition, I also hope to benefit from your knowledge and skills.

I am a big fan of Mercedes Benz. I live in Holland (Amsterdam) and I am interested in an American Mercedes. Have you any idea where I can find a good car and how to transport the car to the Netherlands?

Perhaps you can help me to find an American Mercedes. Because this car I have not yet in my possession. American Mercedes is very rare in Europe. At this moment I am in possession of several Mercedes Benz cars. I must say I never want to drive another car .

I hope to speak you soon at this forum.

Should anyone have tips how to look cars in the United States, feel free to post me. If you have a Mercedes 300 D (turbo diesel) for sale then you can always send a message to me.

Email: mohammedamekloul@hotmail.com

Thanks for your comment.

Op zoek naar een mooie Turken bak, welcome to peachparts!

(sorry kon het niet laten)

Welcome Mohammed, glad to have you on board. Funny how we lust after Euro MB cars, and you want a US car!

Hi Chris,

Yeah that's funny . I really want a US car because in Europe they are very rare.

I think I will visit the States this year.

Een Turken bak???

Als jij een Mercedes een Turkenbak wilt noemen (en ik ga er vanuit dat je dit niet positief bedoelt) dan heb je of geen verstand van auto's of je bent geen Mercedes liefhebber om het op deze manier te verwoorden.

Een beetje jammer om gelijk zo bevooroordeeld te zijn....
Je zult waarschijnlijk veel frustraties hebben. By the way... ik ben trouwens niet Turks.
In ieder geval bedankt voor het welkom heten.

Mocht je mij tips kunnen geven of kunnen helpen met het vinden van een mooie Mercedes dan houd ik me aanbevolen.

Rustig aan; toen ik nog in Nederland woonden werd een Mercedes W123 een "Turken Bak" genoemd, vandaar. Wist niet dat het zo beladen was, mijn excuus.

I see an opportunity for some mutually beneficial commerce. You bring over some euro-spec headlights and bumpers, and we find you a US spec car.

Het is ook niet beladen hoor . Ik wilde je er alleen op attenderen dat je zo kunt overkomen. Ik ben overigens op zoek naar een Amerikaanse W124 300D, deze is namelijk maar in een bepaalde periode in Amerika geproduceerd.

Jij woont nu in Amerika en kunt mij vast wel helpen. Heb jij enig idee waar ik deze auto kan vinden?

Hi MS Fowler,

Maybe we can do some commerce...hahaha

I can arrange enough headlights and bumpers for you if you want. Do you know somebody or where I can buy a Mercedes W124 300D from year 1987.

Hey MerryBenz welcome to the forum - have you been in touch with Only Mercedes? He specialises in bringing in stuff from the states. There are others out there of course but he's a bit closer to you than the chaps in North Groningen!

Don't leave that there - I'll take it to bits!

Look on Craigslist.org or Ebay, or Hemmings at Vehicles for Sale | Hemmings Motor News

What features or models are so special about US models compared to European ones?

I always thought Euro models were better in most respects.... more HP, cleaner looks...etc..
