W211 E500 Avantgarde (early 2003)
Smile Newbie Introduction

Admins, I thought I posted this in the wrong place! Would you be so kind as to move it into the new user introductions please?

G'Day everyone, I'm Rob a newbie to this site. Not a true blue Ozzy but have adopted it as my home. I currently own a early 2003 E500 avantgarde and a 2015 Sprinter that started life as an ambulance and is being converted to a camper. Previously owned a 1997 R170 SLK 200 when I was living in Germany. Love my Mercs I've owned many cars in my time but even with their problems (which all older cars suffer from) they just make me smile when I drive and luxuriate in the comfort. I hope I can contribute as much advice as I can glean from this site.I am a self taught car fixer and occasional idiot! :-) Nice to meet you all. Rob
