Hello all, I was fortunate enough to pick up this beauty back in January and it to the small stable. We dropped her a little bit with the Renntech suspension and added some one piece forged Vossen Wheels.

1999 M-B SL600
Just now joining the forum. My 1999 vehicle is a garage queen with 47000 miles in 20 years. I have owned it only a couple of years. V12 engine required a new coil on cyl. 4 this week, the first significant maintenance so far since new according to the records I have. Brakes have original pads and about 4mm remaining. Have both tops. It is my everyday drive but I don't go every day. It is for fun in my dotage. I look forward to learning from the many voices of experience on the forum.

1995 SL500
Hello MBWorld. I have finally jumped into the world of the Mercedes Benz, A 1995 SL 500 Mercedes Roadster. to be exact As a younger man I have always loved the look of this car. I live in Central West Coast Florida, the convertible capital of the world. Long Boat Key, Lido Beach, basically the life styles of the rich and famous. Of course I don't live there but I do see a lot of great cars that populate this area of the state. I found a used SL 500 on longboat key at an what I thought was a reasonable price. So anyway, here we go. It is nice to have this great forum like MBWorld to turn to for answers. I just wanted to thank all ahead of time for my questions as they arise. Greets! Zep

300D
A Sort-of Newbie

Hi, I'm Ray. I recently bought a 1995 300D, though I'm not completely new to the Mercedes-Benz world. My first car was a 1977 230 that I tried putting back together (note the tried). That being said, I'd still love to have another W123 or a W116 (bucket list car there), however I've lately come to appreciate the W124's enough to buy one... and a diesel!

CLK430 Convertible (W208), A250 Sport (W176)
New member

Hi all, I’m Brad, living in Guernsey and originally from South Africa. My daily drive is an A250 (W176) but I have recently acquired a project car Benz, an ‘01 CLK430 Avantgarde Convertible - friends think I’ve gone made due to the colour but I absolutely love it, and looking forward to working on restoration work together with a Mercedes engineer mate. I’ve read posts on this forum over the years but will likely frequent more often so thought to join

98 SLK 230
Hi I'm sparkyben1, retired IBEW electrician, I have a 98SLK. It feels like a go-cart, almost, I drove a go-kart at 140mph and the SLK does offer a little more protection and is a smidge faster. I will be here for help from time to time and am willing to offer what little I may know. thanks Ben

560sec
New Member

Hi everyone. Recent purchase of my secomd MB, 86' 560 SEC eurospec. First was 2005 S550 sedan. So far the 560 is literally the most favorite of all cars I have owned. It is exceptional. May I show off?




Kenwood Excelon Deck with full Bluetooth compatibility, New speakers, alpine, with a ported alpine type r 12 inch sub in trunk. 18 inch amg monoblock offsets, rear slightly recessed. Tints, everything working perfectly (lets hope that continues)



For context, this is my summer driver. My other car is a 2008 BMW 550i MSport and I thought I loved that car...Wow, this 560SEC is a whole different animal...
