Congrads of the car and welcome to the neighborhood.

I got my first Benz in February 2005. An '01 SLK 320. Since then, I feel a little taller and everywhere I go (I am a construction estimator) people comment about the car. My Benz acqusition project started with my desire to cut my fuel cost (which was $5700 last year) by getting a economy car for everyday use. I gave it the WTF and decided to treat my self to a sports car. I looked at the new WRX STI and The Mustang GT. The Subaru is fab, but I didn't want to swing the insurance...$3600/year! Forget the mustang, its like a short Ford Explorer with different sheet metal. I HAVE a 2002 Ford Explorer.

To get to the point, I went to look at new C class cars and ended up spending a little less and getting a great daily driver. I have driven it 22000 miles since February without any real issues.

Hope you enjoy yours as much As I enjoy mine!

Congrats and Welcome to the Club

I've had several Benz in the past and hope to have several more in the future.

Recently though I too purchased my "Dream Car" which is the SL600...... been having a blast with it! The thing flat out flys!

Post a picture of your new Benz so we can check it out ! If you get a chance to that is


Hope you enjoy your new Benz and the forum.


Cheers,
TJ

cheers guys, hopefully thier will be bundles of knowledge still
bouncing round your brains, for any future questions. will also
get some sweet pics, posted ASAP, will probably go on a self imposed
photo shoot later today! still in the first 24 hr bubble of ownersip,
will possibly go to the South coast of England to get some juicy pictures
or perhaps Stone Henge. the analogy of Monolithic ROcks bodes well!!!

This car has been bought for pure pleasure, it will not commute, Work,
haul crap or even have a part time Job, (((sounds like the girlfiend)))!!!!!

ITs 11 years old & im not planning to exhange it for atleast 5-10 years,
last car owned, still owned !!!is 93 Jeep WrAngler 2.5, 69,000 miles black with AR alloys,
has FSH includes, Bike Rack, Infinity Amp, Sony CD with Remote control, now up
for sale at £3,500 or nearest offer. Anyone!!!! had thought about keeping that
for another 7-8 years, but times have moved on theBenz is the one for me!!!!!

Just looked through all the documentation & found the original sales slip,
and to my extra suprise & hapiness I found out that it has sportline suspension too!!!!

yippeee!!!!!!!

also shows that the owner traded in his 911 & paid an extra £5560. for the privalege........
cant dispel the true pedigree of this beast!!! must of been better than his 911......
