Needless and gratuitous but hey... that's just me

and my ebay spamming tactics.

I doubt any of you lot are interested in this, but it'd be fun with a V8 or summat.

Photography by Elder ;-)

The photography was done in about 20 seconds mainly because I don't give a f*ck about the quality of the pictures. You can see it's got leather an it's not an utter dog. That's about all I've got to say about it, and that's what the pictures say for me :)

Job done!.

Aha, another car "only driven by ladies".

One should start to think that most cars are only female-driven. Mind you : that (and the 141.000 miles) is more than proof enough that the car is knackered beyond salvation.

I see there is allready interest in it for 0.99 UKP. Best of luck!

£150. The leather is probably worth that alone. It's probably the best 190E interior I've seen in 5 years, maybe 10!.

This is just an exploratory ebay mission to see if it's easier to sell the whole car than just the bits. The doors are probably worth about £40 each, Wheels probably about £80, Spoiler £30, bumpers £40 each, bonnet £20, the backbox cost £58 quid and that's done about 20 miles in total..

To repair it would cost about £250 in bits. The waterpump is shagged, the radiator is pretty tired but not leaking, it needs a head gasket and a middle silencer, and there's a couple of balljoints could do with replacing on the steering but it'd be a nice car with them done.

It's just not worth me bothering with. I've got the Audi (when that returns), the Mk1 GTi, and the Mk2 is in bits. My mate has borrowed the Audi because he's had to go to Scotland (He's very likely to buy it when he returns) and all this madness has left me running about in the most tired Peugeot 405 "Style" Diesel estate you've ever seen.

So the Merc has to go, it's pissing me off.

Bollocks, just been offered £200 for it. Spose I should sell as he can pick it up tomorrow and that means I can do more to the Golf....

Looks very similar to my brothers one, his is an E280 CDi but it's got the 'orrible basic alloys on. He was scared off proper wheels by his E60? 5 series.

Mines an 03, E270CDI (the noisy offbeat 5 cyl) - lots cheaper than the facelifted ones. The wheels came with it, and do look better than the base steel-look alloys, but also come with bigger tyres to match.

Enjoying it so far - had it just over a week now stuck 1500 miles on!
