hi,

sorry for my bad English, but it's a very long time that I didn't speak… heeuuuu… write in English.
there will be certainly many faults in my text.
you can correct my English by PM, if you want.

I'm French, I live in the North of France.
my Mercedes is a w140 - 500 SEL long version of November 1991
it is black, with beige interior.
it has just passed the 280.000 km
I think that it is approximately 174.000 miles
I will prepare pics for you to present it.

bye

yes, I saw that you had transformed your w140 for more performance.
I would like to also improve the performance of my car, but, I am not good in mechanics.
so, currently, I seek a black S600 limousine from 97 to 99 with less than 65.000 miles (100.000 km)
