As it was my birthday today...

[Uncle Benz]

...I decided to drag the 280CE from her resting place and start sorting her out...

She had not been started for at least 2 years, but a new battery and some fresh fuel and she started first flick of the key!!

Gave her a good hard hit with the steam cleaner and a little run round the estate, and all felt good!!

I am going to have a look at the condition of the brake discs on monday and then run her down for an MOT.

I will take my camera to work on monday and get a few pictures to post up!!

Couple of pics of the old thing...

She needs a little attention to the rear arches, but not too serious, and one rear bumper end cap is a bit crusty. Just perfect for some evenings at the Ace Cafe in the summer methinks...
