He has been lazy, and removed the Mercedes Benz bonnet logo and added the horse.

Here is a lovely Mercedes 300SE in Thevara, Cochin, caught it before the floods and hope it did not get submerged. Everything in this car is original, including the original UK dealer stickers



Two of Vijay Mallyas cars languishing in UB City. They do not get the tender care of his older classics. This pic is over a year old. The cars are now covered in dust. You can see them as you approach the parking payment kiosk toward Vital Mallya Road

I've not been to Kochi recently but I'm pretty sure Thevara was not affected by the recent floods.

I have this issue with me (somewhere!), it showed some lovely period shots inside including a Commer (?) service van. The 190SL on the back is a superb shot, but probably Singapore, and not India.

Hi! Been seeing many threads but didn't log in (as I did now) - hence missed this old post of yours.

I think we have had email exchanges since then & you've had a chat with the staff at the petrol station of the owners.

Any more info required, do PM or better still email me. Thanks.

The R129 has been my dream car since I was like 3 years old! Any idea who the owner is - or any for sale?

Apparently this one is. Can ask if you're interested.
