Drove the 129.
God it's good to drive....
There really is something about older Mercedes. The first thing that struck me driving the 129 was how it feels hewn from granite.Likewise with my W201. 195 mile round trip, every miles was enjoyed.
That’s not such a bad amount all things considering. It’s the unexpected uplift from a £20 repair to 4 new tyres that takes some absorbing.
Well we have had Neff white goods for many years now and they have never faltered. Our Washer Drier for instance is in 15 years old and hasn't even hiccupped, and it is on pretty much every day !!.
Its a bit of a shock to get all right.....but when you think about it,just look at that could have happened in the circumstances....blow-out on the motor way ( or anywhere else ) lots of possibly very bad outcomes in a situation like that...most benign might only be having to change a wheel ( while it's raining cat's and dog's ) and you are all dressed up, and all ready late for an appointment. Now you can relax, knowing that where the tyres are concerned, you are "Home and Dry".
Just wondering if it would be feasible ( or even possible) to send them the bill for the damaged replacement tyre's? Probably not....unfortunately. But I do know of a case where a electioneering poster fell on to the road, and a car got punctured when driving over it. So the driver took his tyre , the poster and the invoice to the local HQ of the candidate, and he got his money ( after making a fuss about going public on it )
Roof down trip in the CLK , lovely weather !
The journeys purpose was to see the Mother in Law
Keep going north, it only gets betterOvercast and bluddy cold up here !!
