Hello all ! I am an Australian who has just purchased a 1981 500 SE W126 to restore to it's former glory. As this is my first Mercedes I figured it would be a good Idea to join a forum where I may be able to learn a little more about them. The old girl is not to bad but has a few problems that I may need a little help to sort out. I am also after a good manual if anyone can help with any info about the best type of manual to get and the best place buy one .
Looking forward to reading the crop of current posts.

I have a few general questions about this model I would like to ask first , can some one let me know if it is alright to ask them here or should I go to another forum ?
Thanks and look forward to your replies.
