God I like this! I was dredging around - bored in the office and found this  which almost cured my golf phobia - then found this baby and am off looking at ex-taxi auctions... No intro needed....... this ROCKS!   with roof detail  and detailed views   from these guys  used anad abused as it should be......  shamelessly taken from Driver.ie Enjoy! |

I'm feeling the Merc. I'm not sure I'd be happy with that much camber if it were mine but other than that its ticking a lot of boxes!

One of the many things I love about R-R - I'm always seeing examples of cars that I'd previously not even considered to be attractive that just blow my mind. That rocks a fat one.  |

One thing I'd really like to see done to one of those mercs is dark green paint and the deletion of the wee inner lights, just like the original concept drawings. I do like that, although it needs a touch more positive camber...

Superb. The colour choice is different too - big barges tend to gt painted dark colours but that light blue really works.
I think W210 Mercs are a bit overlooked and perhaps a little unloved (relatively). Prices haven't hit rock bottom yet but I reckon in a few years you'll be able to pick them up dirt cheap! Not all that confident on how they'd resist the rust in that time but it's all fixable.
