Exhaust, front and middle sections. Luckily no catalysts.
Water pump.
Alternator bearing went noisy.
Front brake discs and pads.
Only consumables have needed replacing, every car needs brakes and exhausts.
I only paid £1400 for this car, but the effect it has on other people is really funny. People think I am some sort of big boss when I turn up to do work on site. It is only when I open the boot and take out all my tools do they realise I am just a working chap. Everybody comments on it, looking inside and asking how it is going.
I could drive a Ford, Vauxhall costing ten times as much and nobody would give it a second glance.
I LOVE IT.
I am so gutted. Some clown pulled out on us and wrote off my lovely car. Not injured just aches and pains. Ambulance man said if we had been in a metro/seicento etc we would have been in hospital.
Ah well, got a good offer from insurance company.
I hope you spent the insurance money on another good quality European saloon?
well i hope it was another Mercedes...
