Leeds? Tongue

Was just curious.

Looks around £50-£150 a bumper from a quick scan.

At work, skiving lol

Yeah parts prices aren't bad really. Cossie kits are dear though, seen one for 600 quid...

They really are outstanding to drive, mine really doesn't have the power to exploit the chassis but with 185bhp, a ZF dogleg box and uprated suspension they honestly are brilliant. Maybe not quite as sharp as an M3 or Sierra Cosworth but way more refined and smooth, and a shitload cheaper than either.

That's because all old Fords die of rust lol

190 Cosworths are great fun, mine is more relaxing than fun. With enough power you realise how good a chassis these have, every bit as good as an E30 with the exception of the steering, which is too slow and light.

Merc looks badass mate.

Still think it would look good with some arch extensions, poke and purple shag-pile roof lining Wink

No, but I'll bloody miss that car. Honestly the best car I've ever had Smile

Luckily I'd already modded the seat for my 5 foot tall missus, so Jonny fit fine lol

Poke may happen, the rest won't Wink

Not a clue at the moment mate. Always fancied an MX5 but I'd keep the Benz if I got one.

So, after a bit of Forte injector cleaner, new leads, clean plugs and ICV, I have just achieved TWENTY FIVE MILES PER GALLON!!!

It's like driving a Prius Smile

That's what I'm thinking. I'd need an auto pedal box and shifter from a 190 but there are plenty of breakers, and there are more autos than manuals around.

I should have bought an auto in retrospect.

Will do pal. If I could sort out somewhere to keep it would you be able to have a look for some beer tokens? Literally just to check the engine and box?

I thought I'd already commented on this, but I f*cking love this thing, old mercs keep popping up when I'm looking at potential next cars/second cars/project cars. So badass!
