	I thought a formal introduction was overdue to my barge. Its a 1980 W116 S-class Merc with a 3.5 V8 engine. The plan was to buy a big tug to get to the Le Mans 24 Hour race in June and I thought what better for towing beer across France than this? Period tunes always sound better on an old wireless Pictured below with my new beer cooler

	Very nice - any plans for it?

	Like the nice straight Merc. Tint the windows a little and fit a venetian blind in the back window. Go for the subtle look imo. I think you will need a bigger caravan if you intend touring for anything over two days though.........
