What ya going to do with it Mr.Scraps? Hmm... Surely you know the plan by now... The gold Benz was swapped way-back-when for a paint job (originally destined for the Black Benz). Paint job still going ahead - Gonna be Schwatz Black with microflake, but to include full stripdown, so only engine bay giveaway of previous colour. LPG (curse word, gonna have to buy another kit - but going closed loop this time - more efficient and less power loss), then strengthening and hydraulics when I get back from Oz. Sadly the interior in this one is grey leather, not black, but once the glass is hoovered up (yup, it was vandalised like the previous 2!) it will be mint! Electric memory heated vibrating seats and a little switch which makes a blind go up and down in the back window. Nice! Aircon, cruise, sports box, all the toys! Delivered Thursday - can't wait!

I can't help thinking the black one looks much better than the blue one...was there an irresistable profit involved or is the spec that good on ol' bluey?

Top Spec.... I remember sitting in a 560 SEC in the MB garage in Aylesbury when I was 8.... I wanted one.... a LOT. and from what I saw on VZi, the wheels aren't going with the black one..... which will help the overall aesthetic of the 560 (if they get fitted....) the respray will also improve things....
