RE: Your W116 P & J Gallery

I LOVE my W116 to bits. It has been my daily business transport for nearly 10 years. It is a 1980 280SE auto and has done nearly 500 000km. the engine has been completely rebuilt and the gearbox, cooling system, fuel system, suspension have all been replaced or completely overhauled

I love this car. It was always my dream car when I was growing up. It was my dream car when I was using it daily. Now that I have replaced it with a W140 a few weeks ago, it is resting in my garage waiting for complete restoration. NEVER will I part with it.

Here's a couple pics of my 77 450 SEL. 124,000 miles. Two owner car (including me). Originally owned by a medical doc who was meticulous in both his maintenance and his record-keeping. I picked the car up for a song on ebay - sight unseen - figuring I could get my $$$ back if I found too many problems. But she turned out to be a keeper. I've never had a Benz before, frankly never really wanted one; but I LOVE this car's magnificent ride quality.
