I've run a 1990 300CE 24V as my everyday car for eight years now, and its been phenomenal. Rust is starting to creep in at the edges, but I genuinely dread the day I have to make the difficult decision about what to replace it with.

Highly recommended !

Si, I've just bought mine from Nick Cartwright - pic below, from last weekend. Their service was outstanding, and the car is perfect. Feel free to call me on 07702 114551 to discuss the pitfalls of purchasing, and who to look out for. There is one outfit in Kent I won't be dealing with again..... Ti...

:( :( :( Shame I couldn't make this one - looks like it was very good. My daugther wasn't too well last week, which meant a couple of days spent at hospital - time when I would otherwise have been getting the 356 charged up/ cleaned and ready for the drive down. I doubt I'll make April as I'll be i...

I've just bought a 308 GTB QV - 1985, 27,000 documented miles from new, ex F.O.C. Concours winner.

First drive hopefully tomorrow morning - report to follow !

PS If you're going to buy one of these, make sure you speak to Nick Cartwright in Derbyshire, a pleasure to deal with.
