My Ride is a Merc E 320, Its a nice car for long drives has some aftermarket wheels a DVD player fitted.

Good to someone else with a little style.  ;)
This is my '74 450SLC. Genuine and documented 137k from new. With my 300E daily runabout in the background.


And my '75 280SE. I've also got a 450SE for towing the caravan, but it's green and ugly..............  :D

Nice 450 I wish I had the time to own older cars (or the money to pay someone to fix them) Mine is a 98 I owned it about 7 years now just service it put in more fuel and drive it. I can only get around 25,000KM from the tyres thou dosent matter what i try they just wear out. The bloke I buy them off reakons I could try slowing down for corners but that seems a little over the top.
Current bikes. KTM MC 250 77 Husky CR 360 77, Husky 82 420 Auto Bitsa XR 200 project. Dont need a pickle just need to ride my motorcickle

Merc Benz 300E 1992 as the daily runner.



And my Nissan 1400 LDV 2004. My weekend and bike delivery wagon. Basically a Datsun 1200 GX with a very large boot and some minor upgrades like 1400cc engine and disk brakes. Believe it or not but you could still buy these new last year in SA! Costs about zero to run so will never sell this.

Thanks Firko (about the Porsche), yes mate a big cheque book user them 911's  ???

Hey your would get on great with an old kart racing mate of mine Ron Moore. He has about 8 Jags of differing types and years and at least 3 of the big V12 Cats.

Still the best sounding race car on song was the 3 mighty Walkinshaw team Jags at Bathurst 85. Music to the ears ;)

This is the under construction project, with a bit of luck she'll be a driver around christmas.
So far she's got the 9" fitted measured up, the brakes are partially done, 17x10 & 17x9 Bridgestone RE050's are fitted. The Stillen motorsport VG30ET is nearly built, just a small battle with finding a gearbox that will handle 350+HP and still retain the OEM floor shift. Gearbox could be the deal breaker if i can't sort something.



In the meantime i'll continue to drive the bumblebee till the rego runs out then mothball the old girl. She deserves a rest after a few years of good service.

Bahnsy - is that a set of Volk rims on the Z?  They look really good on that car.

Firko, I bought the saab for the wife, l would like a van, always had utes, over utes, when it rains all the gear gets wet, would like a van, etc Vito, VW, Transit, just an old model to deck out run the bike up into it and be able to sleep in it to. Those new hyundai van look ok too.

Here's my almost finished project for a bit of weekend cruising.


Running a mild 308, new rotors and mufflers and i should be good to go. Drive a commodore everyday, but who hasn't seen one of those!
