A mate of mine's just won a Merc 500 SEC on the bay.

Full electric, full leather, 5 litre V8, taxed, ticketed...£1000.

Hahaha...What were they new? £60k?

It'll soon have a set of (uber-rare) polished 16x8 AMG Pentas and be sitting a LOT closer to the ground.

And its not gold btw...It is the same colour as his current W123:

Do you have a picture of these Penski?

What sort of condition car will £1,000 get you?

That style

If you know what you're looking for, you can get a bargain for a grand. The one in question is pretty much perfect.

BUT there are a lot of rotten ones out there...So educate yourself before you buy.

Odd statement... :/

This seriously does nothing for you?

I don't like that one bit. It looks horrid.

I saw a 300SL on the M3 a few months back and it turned my head, but I wouldn't say it was a particularly nice looking car.

What about something like this?
