I bought this car a couple of years ago, and recently got around to putting the engine back together, finishing the major bits and getting it back on the road.

I have a large amount of history with it, but its got a Mercedes Owners club sticker in the windscreen, so thought somebody around here must know about it? It would be great to find out the previous owner and ask about some of the things that has been done to it (single stage paint?)

On a side note, it's so nice to drive a sorted 123, I am so glad it's back on the road :)

I don’t know who you bought it from but presumably the York company on this ad could pass your details on to the previous owner and ask them to make contact?

By the way, can we see more pictures of the car :)

Me and the supplying dealer are not on speaking terms..... :(

I did ask them before that occured but they did not have them, which is a shame.

You can do indeed, I'll take some more this weekend when I have given it a proper clean.
