New W124 Coupe Owner

[mtgraphics]

Hi everyone I have just joined up today, I have had my car since August this year, and love it.
It's my first 124 so it's been a bit of a learning curve sorting out a few issues as I go along, and lots more to come I'm sure.
The car is a '91 230ce with 113,000 miles on it, it's not winning any drag races but is a great cruiser, and not to bad on fuel, and very cheap to insure.
It's had a few bits changed by previous owners I'm told, I think the alloys are off a later e-class, the interior has been changed to mushroom leather, which is in really good condition, and I think the front grille is not it's original, like I say I'm still learning a lot about this model.
It's had a lot of paintwork done, some is not the best and I would like to get both rear quarter panels done soon, as they are the worse, it's completely solid though, no rust, which is a bonus.
I look forward to be an active member on here and would like to go to some local meets next year if there is any here down south.

Hi from another 124 ce owner..

Hello, nice looking W124

 

[LostKiwi]

Hi and welcome. Those alloys look like they are from a w210 e-class.
There's something very right about the 124 CE.

Many thanks for the welcomes

Cole@MBS, you're very close to me, I'm in Andover, I could well be needing your expert services in the near future

looking very well that 124 mark , I'd look for a set of mono blocks personally , they would finish the car off imo

Thanks John, I always like to use a Debbie Harry photo as my avatar, think this one is her circa 1976, I've been a fan since then.
