Haha. Yes it's a very nice colour and van. I polished my vdub today this morning and they're delicious when they're shiny

Turned 25 at the end of april so i treated my self to sn upgrade from my E240 i got a facelift Mercedes S500 5.0l V8 il hopefully post pics soon so far its an amazing car the air suspension is great and the power is great them 5 liters really pick this thing up under full acceleration you cant keep it straight, its awesome on motorways driving while getting a massage lol.. Im too happy with this car the V8 rumble has had me smiling for the last few weeks..

Nice. Put some pics up. Very comfy cars.

Blimey! 25 and you have an S class! What year is it? I saw an article on Fifth Gear I think where they tested a few years old S class against a brand new one and it was only the toy's that gave the older one away, well made cars.

They are dirt cheap on auto trader, so much car for the money. I'm not sure I'd want one at 25, but hey, it would be pretty boring if we all liked the same things.

apolloa

That was my point, not the cost as they are pretty cheap second hand, unless he brought it new! But it just seems a hell of a lot of car for 25, but yeah absolutely each to their own, be an incredibly boring world if it wasn't

I should have made that a bit clearer in my post so apologies to tony smallz for not making that more clear.

Then again an S class with blacked out windows on some nice shiny big rims would be an awesome cruiser!

Not sure youd want a nice big 5 liter V8, my first car was a benz im just a huge fan of mercedes i wouldent drive anything else RWD Big engines and plenty of comfort im not into small cars if im not in a benz im on a r6




Hey dude you seem to apriciate such a car so its
Funny you talk about wheels i have a mint set of carlsson 3/6 3 piece rims running 285/35/18 on the rears that i still need to take of my eclass im going to swap them over with the S



Plenty of toys and we all know what they say if you want to know what toys you will have on your car in a decades time now get a s class




The wifes c class on the right thats a V6 2.6l its as smooth as glass also packed with toys

apolloa

Man it is so understated yet classy at the same time Nice condition,  you need to fit those big rims though and it'll be sweet then.
You certainly wouldn't think that's a 5 litre V8 car, and a media screen like that on a car of that year! So yes they do have some tech in them, mind you I'm still not too sure about the new S class heated door panels and arm rests?

Does it have bluetooth or was that after it's time?

It does have bluetooth I can read my txts and voice search and call my contact list from my steering wheel.
But for me its all about the engine and the sound it makes under light acceleration im hooked..

My next move is fitting air suspension links so I can lower it lower than intended.

Also that is a very nice r129 not a fan of bmw but that one is my fave shape
