Buying Mercedes CL420 1998 R Reg

[Craiglxviii]

In age. I meant, shape wise.

The 140 looks a rectangle tank hehhe. You i did nearly buy your shape. very close to it.

What size are your wheels?

18” would you believe? Most think they’re 19 for some reason.

Have a lovely weekend.

 

[Craiglxviii]

View attachment 42046 View attachment 42047 I put these wheels on my 215, apparently some here think they look alright.

Will you just stop it!

They don’t hold a candle to yours John!

I have the plan to bigger wheels on mine and just tidy up the bodywork. Not doing anythig to the body work in terms of a kit. Want it as original as possible apart from the wheels.

I think these will be worth a bit in the coming years just like the sec. the SEC is what i really wanted but a little out of my budget.

Getting excited now, but see how it goes on Sunday.

If you get time on the way back down and if it’s before mid day pop into the Phantom Winger just north of Preston you can see a few of us ‘Northerners’ with our various Mercs (there will be loads of other actual supercars there too).

Not sure I agree Craig, those (and I’ve said it before) are lush....

I do love those monoblocs. Beautiful car.

I'm not familiar with the car , but does the rear suspension look a bit low or is that how it should sit ?
