Thanks, I'll post more photos as soon as I come back. Leaving India tomorrow to middle-east for covering for my show. I'm trying to get the oe rims.

I'm sure almost all of us on t-bhp will agree when I say that the W124 is a timeless classic. There are some of us who have always wanted to own a W124 and there are some who have been wild (brave?) enough to step up and make it a reality. Congrats!

And yes, those wheels might look nice on something more younger, it just ruins the plot.
Thank you bro Jasi!

Sure, I'll bring it to you once am back, only a day & lot of work as you know.

Wow ! That is a great news. But Orion silver is not a color I would like. When he buys smaller Indian cars(his repainted swift looks a zillion bucks), he will go for the best of colors and when it is time to go big, he always end up confused.

So, the Z4 is here, No wonder he isn't showing up at the gym lately

This photo was taken after a long drive from Calicut-Wayanad-Calicut-Tirur on a raining night, hence the car wasn't clean. I couldn't snap any better photos due to the tight schdule, more over the car is non-stop running since its was the opening of our new Resort. Dad uses the car, but now he drive very less and driver drives more. Even when I'm going to site, I give the command to him & I finish my pending works in my lap sitting rear seats.

Anyway for time being only there snaps, will post more later.
Hannie congrats up on your new buy !!!

Looking good and classy in white , Please change the rims and tires.

Many congratulations, hanmust!!! The W124 was the rational Indian car fantasy of my teenage years... please tell us how much you paid for the car? I've seen one in the newspapers classifieds asking for Rs. 3.5 lacs...

like coloneljasi said, are we brave enough or just wild

Nope bro, their X6 has the Under-Body too painted in body color(Alpine White). This looks like another one. And the idea of the 'X6' number seems to have 'clicked'

@rupin - How did you learn that it is tvm regn ?

See the difference? The under-body too is painted in D unc's car. Pic earlier posted by Anand I guess.
