Newbie here

Hello everyone, I've been a LONG time VW owner and still do have an Audi but I finally decided to move on and get into a Benz.
Got myself a 91 300E with 200k, wheels&air ride (I like low) that is in great shape. Been a California car until the last few years and now in Texas.
Black on black with original paint/interior that's surprisingly in amazing shape but it seems these older Mercedes quality was just out of this world back then. VW would have faded/torn a part big time by now.
Anyway, looking forward to keeping this car clean and maintaining it/repairing in the future. So far I love it and it is slow as a snail but I don't mind it one bit.

Thanks!
