Hi all,


New member here, just thought I’d say hello. I’m based in Dunfermline and currently running two very different Mercedes. My daily is a C200 W206, which is a lovely thing to drive, very smooth and I am partial to all the tech. For fun I’ve got an R171 SLK200 that still makes me grin every time the roof folds away.

I’ve also got a soft spot for the older stuff — particularly W124s and 190Es — and spend more time than I should trawling the classifieds for them.

Looking forward to joining in the chat and picking up some wisdom from the collective.

Cheers,
Alan

Hello Alan and welcome. I was going to say that Mercedes ownership can be addictive but you seem to know that already!

Welcome :)

I know Dunfermline well as my youngest son lives there - Fine City!!
Aw, thank you. Sorry, just back onto the site after a wee holiday. Yes, it's not a bad place. Fife is underrated in general. Some good driving and cycling roads.

Many thanks! It is, isn't it. On top of the two I currently have I'd love a W124, W201, an R129 any C63... The list of wants goes on and on.
