well for now, the conti is our priority, lets see how things go. looking for some serious work tomorrow on it, will even try and update pics.

Better pics of the 500 SEL taken in Mumbai in Nov 2004.

well hey nice to see more pics of the car. but the sad news is she is not in that great a condition. the doors are rusted from inside, the silencer has collapsed from its bracket, the interiors are at its worst. the body is rusting beneath the paint. and a long list. but i want to bring her back to the ever best and put evry other car to shame,
For now keeping in mind that the tyres have to be changed, i am painting the roads with it.
