German Taxi (1987 300E)
Two miles before I got to school, the brakes stopped working (I got them done two months before--no way should brakes be worn down in two months!). UC San Diego sits on a hill, so one would think it would start rolling backwards. Oh no--it kept NOT STOPPING. The car wouldn't stop any more, so it was either hit a bunch of BMW's on the right side, some VW's to the left, or...
I survived, but the car did not. Suffice it to say, I made it to my last final exam ever on time. One of the art professors (I coincidentally crashed it in the Fine Arts parking lot) suggested we use it as an art project (jokingly). One of the facilities guys bought it, and used it for parts.
When I got home, one of my roommates found a full brake pad on our driveway...

For ****s and giggles, I left it in that parking lot for a week. People wrote condolence messages.

Even though I don't personally own a W124 (yet), my old man has the wagon, and I plan on gettin one once I finish the 240D project (loooong project, candy paint almost done). But heres me (stupid senior pic, only one I have on this comp)
Other than this one, but I didn't want that to be the only way I'm represented (no I'm not actually high, just alway look it in pics)![](http://myspace-393.vo.llnwd.net/01065/39/31/1065441393_l.jpg)
And one of MY car, not the wagon (being sold)
