vineethvazhayil	Nice little garage there! Especially this one!	5th November 2010
konjaril	Thanks a lot Grafin, i just cant wait to take her out on a spin again but the conti is really holding me back...	1st October 2010
Grafin	Well i sure the patience and persistence will pay dividends sooner or later. Well isn't that a joy to see :) Not too many people get to drive a thumping V8 to work everyday and that too a Merc, i must say, i envy you ;)	30th September 2010
konjaril	well yes the wiring is a nightmare although i have the wiring diagrams and all..even the wires on the car are pre tagged from the company itself so lets see. The engine is a gem..i used to drive her everyday to office for two weeks and my office is 40 kms. with all that size and weight she still wheel spins and leaves a dark mark on the tarmac :)	30th September 2010
Grafin	Well, the wiring on old German cars are a nightmare i guess. Hows the engine?	30th September 2010
konjaril	She is doing all good... i am waiting for some components to go on the sliding roof and even sort out some wiring issues..	30th September 2010
Grafin	Looks like the car went through a rough patch :( Hows the ol girl now?	30th September 2010
