On my previous post I was asking for advice regarding pre 2000 R129 models as that was my preference.
However, on briefing the wife she soon made me aware that storing a hardtop in the garage for 6 months of the year was a no no from her point of view and she suggested that I look for my second choice which was a W208 convertible. Being a long service married man I know my place in the pecking order so I stopped while I was ahead.
I'm pleased to say I've found a 52 plate 320 avantgarde with 63k, one owner with a full MB service history. I've forgotten the paint code but is a light lavender blue colour with a dark blue roof.
Will try to post photos but I'm a technology numptie so may take some time!
