tooquicktostop Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 My Supra goes off for a full colour change respray in a couple of weeks so I needed a run around and something I can use when it comes back as my Supra will be used less (use it daily it present!) S500 Merc 2003, have to say it is a dream to drive, lot of car for the money Its a high spec car anyway and I took some time to look at a few as rust can be an issue at this age, electric everything and nice smooth power, similar to my old E55AMG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Nice Last of the nice S class models IMO, all the newer ones became bulbous and ostentatious. You can pick up some seriously spec'd up S and CL model mercs from this era for next to nothing, though as you're obviously well aware, they're not without their risks I'd love a W140 oneday.

tooquicktostop Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 I agree there is risk, my 1999 E55 AMG became a money pit with parts costs, this one is in much better starting condition, needs a couple of tyres and a touch up here and there but not bad for less than £3K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
