There was a period of time my dad was driving a merc similar to the one below... the model with big old round headlamps like bug eyes. But it was a sedan, not topless. And in APPLE GREEN. It was quite hideous IMO Very retro.Originally posted by LazerLordz:My dream Mercedes..

that time when i sat in my friend's dad's 280SE almost 8 years after my dad sold his, all the memories came back to me i dont know why.Originally posted by LazerLordz:Seems like everyone has experience with the good old 280SE or 500SEL, W126 model.
the smell of the leather and the texture of everything were still the same. -

the oval headlight E200. 1980 something version license plate was EJ. I was ferried to the hospital in that car before coming into this world!
then the rectangular headlight E200. that was in 1991 i think. boxy shape one the same model as the Masterpiece just that it was earlier. -

no. how? tell us. very curious.Originally posted by mister-yee:did i mention that my 500SEL is haunted? -
now i'm saying it's haunted because there was a couple of incidents that cannot be explained.Originally posted by HENG@:no. how? tell us. very curious.
first was my former maid which had never seen the car...said she had dreamt of an old lady saying that she wanted the SEL500 in my house because the car was then placed in my grandfather's house...and when she decribed the old lady's appearance..it matched my late-grandmother perfectly..so we took the car back from my grandfather's place..
secondly was that i went out with my cousin one night and when we returned, i usually park my C230k behind the SEL500. my cousin said that she saw a shadowy figure in the SEL500 which was locked at the time, but when she walk passed it the car was empty. and when she described the figure..it also matched my grandmother's appearance..
reuslting in the belief that my SEL500 is haunted by my grandmother.. -
