Hi All, New Member

Hi all, I go by alphasurf.

I guess it's pretty obvious that I am a new member if I am posting here but I am also a new MB owner and love it so far. Never drove a car that made me feel like I am sitting on a cloud floating down the road!

I recently purchased myself a 2001 MB S500 from the original owner. It had 16,551 original miles and it came with the original bill of sale, window sticker, all the vehicle manuals, its service records printed out from MB service dept, carfax, one set of MB carpet mats and also MB rubber mats for the floor. Car is practically in Mint/showroom condition.

The very next day I purchased my Girl a 1999 Slk 230. Her car has 190,000 miles and runs good for a car with that many miles. I got the service records from MB and it was serviced there until 180,000 miles. Its a nice little car but 3 days after buying it the top stopped working and it has a few minor issues.

I am including a pic of them together in my driveway.
