Yes, Another new ride...

Post by SteveP »

Well.. after 360 Death (see other thread) and the increasing trend of people buying new 300s...

Some of you may know I'd been eyeing up the Ebay saloon, which I bought and collected today :D

Few bits of rust, rear doors, drivers side sill being a bit of a concern... but needing a car quick and cheaply, it had to be done. Plus how pimp is the bodykit ;)

Oh yeah, Hugh.. if you do actually come next week - I'll get you that pint! sm4

Looks nice Steve, that stripe is a bit OTT, but other than that, looks like you've got a decent car, the rust can be overcome I'm sure. That body kit looks ace, I reckon the back looks a lot better on the saloons. Nice colour too the Ocean Blue Metallic.
