Well am playing the waiting game with a W123 coupe already, price quoted is too high and now this one. Will have to cough out some bucks kept for a rainy day (for me, THIS IS a rainy day!)

Oh no ajmat! That Honour goes to this merc 170,Lil genius here has a Matador 307 engine in it!!!

The Red two door, is converted from L.H.D to R.H.D!!!

*runs out of thread!*

The car has recently been purchased by a fellow, but i don't think he can make it run again. The car was originally an LHD, but the previous owner converted it to RHD. It never ran well after that! Gogi, if the car is for sale,U'll definitely know.(just let the new guy get fed up with it!!)
