Hello all, my name is Bob Howard, user name BobH, from the UK. I've only owned my 230SL for about 5 years, and i was lucky enough to buy it fully restored, so i haven't been through the pain that some of you have
I can do very small jobs on the car, with the help of this forum and manual, but anything really oily i leave to the garage, i'm just not that bendy enough anymore
I knew absolutely nothing about these cars until i joined the forum, and i've forgotten nearly everything i learned when i used to work on cars in the 70's, not professionally, so i'm learnng again. I can find my way around a wiring schematic, and i love problem solving, it keeps the few remaining brain cells i have left from escaping
