My first Mercedes is a w140 s500 1995. I love that car, and I don't usually mind keeping up with the repairs. Hopefully I will be able to. Thanks in advance for any help that I get from the forum.

This was the day I picked the car up. One owner car with 88k miles at that time. Mice had moved into the aircleaner and also chewed some wires. Not too bad.
