I finally found a good one, no ABC issues, no misfires, and so far just the clock doesn't set is the only electronic bit that hasn't worked.

In the new home after an 1800+ trip across the country. Car wash was closed for maintenance so she's still dirty. Once I get it cleaned up I'll post new pics.

Well...HELLO.....newb here. I havent even laid fingers on it yet - but extremely excited to bring it home. I am an avid Land Rover restorer - so well aware of cars with issues. I suspect with a vehicle like this there are idiosyncracies and I will find myself in need of help. In the meantime thought i would say hi, intro myself & "Franz" ... I always name my cars & trucks. Here are the pictures the prev owner took for selling it.

 

Franz looks almost just like my AmyG... kids gave her that name from the Navi voice all over the country. Flint Grey color 368? Mine is still rolling factory wheels though. Congrats!

I lost a company in the 2008 crisis along with my 2004 S55. Finally in a position again to buy "back" my dream car and I found this 2006 S55 perfect interior and is only costing me $4k to get it up to like new mechanical spec. All in for $19k. Why would I ever commute in a $30k honda? I don't understand people.

 

Was that carbon tape or did you get a full carbon interior for your W220 and where is it from?

 

 

My '04 Getting ready to go under the knife for some maintenance items to get it ready for the summer season. Hopefully a paint correction here soon as well.

 

Still kicking around, out from the winter slumber.
