Where is Glyn?

This is most probably off-topic, but does anyone know why Glynn M Ruck has been so quiet lately?

O NO! I joined a month too late.
He had so much knowledge to share...
What would the reason be?

I'm pretty sure that was a joke.

Seriously, he hasn't posted anything in 4 weeks. Normally he is very active. I have been following this forum as a guest for a good number of years...

Must be on holidays & thinking about other things rather than MB,s.

Good luck to him.

Maybe he is glued to the TV watching Oscar's trial? Everyone else in South Africa is.

Glyn may be half man half machine but even he needs a break. Until then us minions can band together to solve the finnicky problems these great cars give.

Obviously, he's off saving fair maidens whose Benzes have broken down, while at the same time, boring them with exactly what went wrong with their cars in excruciating detail.

Maybe he got rid of his Benz and got a Fiat ;-)

Hope all is well with Glyn and he is enjoying some vacation time.

Or maybe he's fed up with all of the technical problems so he bought a Toyota.

Japan is awesome. I don't travel that fancy though. I've been to Cuba and Mexico because I get those trips at awesome prices at last minute

Personally I thought he'd moved on to more current MB territory.
Seemed to be a lot of posts in newer forums.
We of the W203 ilk, just aren't as interesting anymore. W205 is due to be out soon..we'll never she him again!


Never even got a response to the "drives" section of my profile or my avatar, which btw is an actual picture of Glyn.

Eh you guys jumping ship to BMW...
What's the difference between a porcupine and a BMW.
The porcupine has the priks on the outside.... he he...
