at long last I have finally bought myself a mint condition, one owner 70k miles MB quattro. After wanting one since I was about 15 I have finally taken the plunge...What a car! the noise when accelerating is awesome - and shock horror it even has steering feel!
Just dont mention it to the wife!

So which one of the many garages is this one in Simon ?
At first glance I thought you had a car lift in there (red bits and grey strips at front of car).

Its in the back of the house garage, and the red is the base from the Carcoon it normally sits in, grey is the carpet put in to absorb product of leaking heater matrix
ramp sadly is not able to fit.

Dunc, that's not the same one they had in at Fontain last year is it? I had just bought my S4 from them, went back a couple of weeks later and they had this beauty in at about the same price. Asked if I could trade the S4 back in but they said no. Looked identical to yours. Had about 60k on the clock.
In the Lower Sixth I skived a General Studies lesson and spent a glorious half hour sat in one of these. Promised myself I would have one one day, and I'm still waiting 21yrs on...
