1989 Mercedes-Benz 300CE-24
Intro and ride.... THE STIG or The Storm Trooper?

My name is Ben, and i've recently added an 89' 300CE-24 to my fleet.
This has been a fantastic care so far, and i'm enjoying learning all about merc's and especially seeing what everyone else has done to theirs...

The car was bought with the limo tinting, and your really can't see in this thing. I've done many "flip the bird" tests while driving.
I've fitted a little more chrome to the front grill and am going to have the AMG rims repainted. I'm open to suggestions as well....

Sidethought.... I love the opening sequence of "the transporter" is it crazy to think i would be be able to adapt a keypad type ignition starter to the Merc.

Thanks for clicking in.....

p.s. - Ow yes and the name, i can't decide between 'the stig' and 'the storm trooper' - these are not the droids your looking for !

Ok then, some say his veins are filled with motor oil, and he can only be heard by ducks. But from here on out he'll be known as ' The Stig '....
