Well look at it this way, its only a 275 mile trip down to Richard
also,
is this a standard colour? it looks purple but its been listed as blue on autotrader before.

I think you will find that colour is Azurite Blue - it has that purplish tinge in direct sunlight. It is a nice colour and quite common on SLs.
what about this azurite one (London I think)

I have just baught mercedes e class 320 cdi estate
The car has covered 147000 miles, I drive mostly in town. It has has just been serviced, I have replaced electric water pump and termostat. All of a sudden, I noticed high fuel consumption in town 20mpg to the galon. Mot is fine and there is no smoke but the car is not as powerfull as it was before.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Ha ha!
They should've mentioned you need to be a maximum height!
Well that good to know Fleetwood, i will bear that in mind when i go look at some others.
a few questions, did they ALL come with air con? i assume the earlier SLs had the EC button to turn the aircon off [like my parents W124] is this true?
also, i take it cruise was not standard equipment as i have seen a few with or without. does anybody know the Uk standard spec list and what to look out for optional extras?
This suspension thing too, is there a button with a tyre on which means sport/comfort mode? can someone give me some detail on this?
do all the storage bins automatically lock with central locking on Uk models? there also doesnt seem to have the adjustable steerwing column, was this a US only option?
the Ken Rockwell site seems to focus on the US models.
