I wasn't happy with my tailgate so did a little bit more to it today.

Also been trying to sell the Polo for the last few weeks and just had my time wasted by dickheads so when someone offered there C230 Kompressor for it today I though fuck it, why not?

I really have no clue what the Mercedes is worth but the guy who had it was quite young, had just got points on his licence for speeding and his insurance was crippling him financially.
The polo was a lot cheaper to run and insure for him plus he seemed like your typical dubber and mentioned banded steels and rattle canning it, he also preferred the lowered suspension and loud exhaust.
I had to laugh at the wee cunt when he asked me to please not let his Mercedes sit and rot like the rest of my motors, yes he actually fucking said that!
Hate to break it to you mate, it's now my car to do whatever the fuck I want with...

Weld it to a big pole and plant it in the ground up by the front of the road where he can see it.

That c looks really tidy - the arches especially seem mint for one of those. Plus if those are c36/43 alloys - they look staggered- you could flog them for decent coin.

I'm really not sure what to do with it.

They look staggered to me, any idea what kinda money they are worth?

So, a friend has offered me £750 and an audi a6 avant sport in part exchange for the c230.
It has a long mot but has gearbox issues, I think the linkage just needs adjustment.
It's probably a bit new for me so will probably fix it and move it on or see if my dad wants it. Image
