It makes me think it's a little 17 year old selling it! By the things he's done to it and his vocabulary lol he's 'rude' init! Is that an X on the petrol cap :s?
Mercedes should take him to court for this lol

When I first saw it I thought is was a car by "Rude Merc's" a company based in the East End that used to specialise in proper council conversions back in the day! They are still in business as far as I know.

That was all the Rage back in the 90's though Si. I had a copy of Max power circa '94 with that yellow 190E in.

Used to see quite a few 190's with RudeMercs badges and some tweeks round South London back in the day.

Yeah I used to see that company logo on 190e and other Mercs back in the day. Not so much now. I'm after a 190d but they hold there value more than the petrol equivalent.
