Found this

Was digging through some photos recently and found one of my first car.

It was a 1978 Mercedes 230 in ‘English Red’.  A lovely car and built when Mercedes over-engineered everything on their cars.  I haven’t come across any other car that was as solid as this one.  I ran it for a couple of years and sold it on at a small profit.  This was followed by a 1984 Mercedes 190E which was just as good.  Unfortunately the 190 was written off in 1999 when I was rear-ended at 50mph by a Hyundai.
