Thanks mate . Did the pic appear ? pumped tyres up all brand new conti's 4+ years ago.Its not moved so I'm expecting flat spots. I put in 10lts of fuel and took my BIG battery from my mk2 Granada. Well I thought it was big untill I removed the one from the Merc . Bloody massive thing. Turns over but non start. reckon the fuel pump has chucked it. Alot of motor tho. I see your from Embra .Me too.

Nice motors these.
I've recently picked up a 300ce. Like you say, a lot of car for the cash.
I'm well happy with mine so far

Couldn't see the pic, had to open it up in another window.

Hi mate. 200e Mainland Europe only. I thought it was a 300 when I first seen it . Never new they did a 2ltr version. 2ltr 16v manual Real Leather not MBTEX. Chuffed to bits to be honest.
