I have got a Chrysler 300c in my collection which has Merc underpinnings such as the engine, gearbox, suspension wiring etc. The engine is the Mercedes OM642 3.0 V6, tuned to 260hp and 580Nm of torque. I bought it as I was clocking up long distance mileage that I didn't want to put on the Rover V6. However, circumstances have changed, so I am probably going to sell it. Keep looking Bill, a Rover with the right spec. will turn up eventually.

The car was my daily driver up until about 18 months ago, when I put it on a limited mileage classic insurance policy.
It has always lived outside, and I think it is better off being used regularly. So, it is going back into daily service soon. In my opinion, it is what they are made for .

Hi, Bill, I had a 1996 Accord2.0LS coupe for a short time, bought at auction for silly low money for such a lovely car. It was an impulse purchase, and a very hard decision to sell it again, but with fuel prices rocketing, it had to go. And then they came down again!
