My Pagoda
« on: February 23, 2015, 17:48:54 »
Did get my Pagoda back from v.Dijk in the Netherlands today after I've let some things do to my car.

New bumpers, I didn't like the rubber rosette on it.
New wood trim.
RVS exhaust.
New front window because there were a lot of scratches in it and a mechanical overhaul.

I'm very pleased with it and I love the car more and more.

Your rear view mirror looks like from a 230, I actually like that one more, more chrome  :).

Car looks better in Euro version bumpers especially the rear, the front ...more macho in US version

Looks super, well done!

Did you use the same bumpers, i.e. had the hole plugged then re-chromed?

Enjoy the summer and safe and happy outings :)

Hello Rolf-Dieter it were the bumpers from another Pagoda that were re-chromed and they took mine in so they can
let them re-chrome and use on another one.
The sound of the new RVS-exhaust is really terriffic.

Planned to go to Germany and Austria this summer with my Pagoda.
