I like the mercedes, oldtimers and many mercedes.

Hello Valerian:

I use to live in Beaulieu-sur-mer for a few years, in the early 90's. I use to go to the African Queen for lunch a few times per week, was dating a gal who worked at the Rive dealer. She got to use the Super Aquarama evey so often, better almost) than a 500E.
There was a Museum just off the A8 near Mougins, they had a swap meet (autojumble) every September. I was wondering if the place is still open.
There was also a big swap meet in Lyon evey year.

Kind Regards

Ron

Thank you all.

In 2010 I stayed 1 night in St. Tropez and then in Monaco.... I will let you know next time I'm in the area......

When I was in the area 75 meters below the fountain in the photo below (in the direction of the casino), just 5 minutes later, I was standing just 2 meters from the president of Argentina Cristina Kirchner.

:clapper:

Ah yes, Exotic Gardens and the Cafe d'Paris..... home of the 50 Euro L'onigon soup and Iced Tea..... if you stay during the race get a "12" Room at the Hotel d'Paris, 712, 612, etc. best room with a view in the house.

I'm really missing that area now.... REALLY REALLY.

Each of those German Weihenstephan beers was USD $15.00... but damn, were they tasty (and also a major sponsor of the annual Alpentour I go on).

Cheers,

[--CHICHOIS--]

I put a lot of pictures, I hope it do not bother you?

 

[gsxr]

Photos are awesome - thanks for posting!

Question: Is that black W124 with the AMG body kit and Recaro seats a Hammer...??

 

[Ron500E]

Champignon.
Champignon.
Champignon.

The people who disagree are full of shiitake.

[--CHICHOIS--]

Thank you GSXR, Yes, it' s a Hammer (5.6) Body kit, inside recarro, and 58 000 kilometers.(36200 miles?) (1986)

 

[CB500E]

I love the French spec headlights with the yellow highbeams. Are the foglights yellow tinted glass or is it just the bulb that makes them yellow?

I am also only 26, very few young men our age appreciating and driving 500E's

 

[--CHICHOIS--]

Thank you.

For normal driving light color, there has a small bell attached plastic yellow over the bulb :

For fog lamps in the bumper, there has a big piece change as it is made ​​entirely of glass yellow :

 

[Jelmer]

Not at all! By all means, please continue

And spanish plates!

 

[bing]

Don' t understand what you say

Meaning the CLS55 & E55 AMG Kompressors any special work done or just standard/stock AMG?

 

[195910]

Don' t understand what you say

Moded = Tuned = Modified to upgrade performance. in the case of the M113K :ECU,Long tubes, intake, pulley, filters, de-cat, cams = 620PS

 

[--CHICHOIS--]

So, ok, no moded on the E and CLS.
