History
The vehicle was originally purchased from Mercedes in Mudgee, and lived most of it's life as a country car. It was then moved to Bathurst, where it was semi-restored. *According to the odometer it had 196,000km on it (currently 200+) when I purchased it. I then moved it to Sydney as a Daily Driver rolling resto project.
I bought this car when I was 17 and on my red Ps driving it to and from school and continue to drive it today, and intend to for the foreseeable future. This is my first car, and it holds sentimental value to my family, as my late grandfather also owned a 280SE Merc in his life time (also accruing over a million miles on a 300D, 1,600,000km). The car has treated me very well, taking me around town and through the city, and even on long road trips in the country.
