I daily drive a w116 from 78, I kept the patina because I like that sort of thing but I refreshed the interior, some mechanical bits and bobs and treated all the rust. I love older cars

Interesting how you resolved the faulty fuel gauge issue, mine is stuck atm. The interior leather, wood etc and exterior colour really make this car look rather special ....and it's a V8 too. I love my M50 e34 manual so I'm sure this baby V8 puts a smile on your face too. Perhaps you could film some road trips in it now? 👍😎
