Got a new luger carrying case

Vlim · 08-06-2005, 10:08 AM

Got my 'new' luger carrying case home today. A bit big, but extra space is always welcome

I will be banned from green party membership for at least a couple of decades now, and I really don't care.

I see this car this morning , the guy was doing stockcar with mine...

From France

George Anderson · 08-06-2005, 01:01 PM

Gerben, that is my favorite Mercedes. I looked at a used one last year and walked away when I realized that I could buy two F150s new for the same price.

The first one I ever saw was that driven by the

xxxxxxxxx

who married a very very wealthy German in Charlottesville Virginia. She used to drive it to the pheasant shoots.

Way to go, man! Congrats, and enjoy.

Hey Gerben, NEATO!!! I love these things.

Gerben,
did it come with the standard Dutch accessory, a trailer hook ?

Vlim · 08-07-2005, 09:09 AM

Juergen,

Of course

Even though this one started it's life in Germany...
I love these Austrian Hummers....The timeless design is just amazing. They have been on sale for over 25 years and the design is still as fresh as in 1979.

For the Non-MB specialists: These cars are actually built by Steyr-Daimler-Puch in Graz, Austria. The Austrian army uses them with the Puch badge and the Swiss as well, I believe.

The French used them as Peugeot with a Peugeot diesel engine, as they liked the design but would rather be found dead than driving a Mercedes

Gerben, nice wheels!

I guess many of them have been found in that circumstance...driving Peugeot, Renault, and the strange one that goes up and down like a Mexican outfit with risers. Nothing really beats a Mercedes.

I would want one of these even more than a Hummer!

Congrats Gerben...

Is that one of those free government benefits we hear about in the Netherlands?

Vlim · 08-09-2005, 01:21 AM

Hi Aaron,

Ehm. No. Road tax and fuel costs are just about killing us
