Richard Gere had a thing for Mercedes Coupes as he drove them in several of his movies (including the SL he destroyed in " Cossroad ").
Mostly , W-123 300CE's , these being the gasoline version with the powerful if thirsty M-110 engine , they were popular rich folks Hot Rods back when new .
My central locking , doesn't work .
I really should go in and fix it but instead I fixed the central locking in cluding the truck and gas flap , on SWMBO's clean 1982 240D , she's happy , this makes me happy .
