Weekend at Camp ferocious

Great weather in the UK ideal for working on Gs in my barn, as ussual I called at my local diner for sunday breakfast, orderd the twodogs special, 2 eggs bacon sausage fried bread black pudding mushrooms beans fried potatoes, followed with treacle sponge and custard.
Strange noises outside and the weirdest vehicles started coming on the front, The local chapter of the US car club had arrived.
At the barn later a couple of guys turned up in a well tooled up G.
And finaly a bandit in a blinged up 280 GE.

No bling bling i can see on the badnit's 280 GE

The clear indicators and the tinted windows goes along with the color of the G , The additional lights on the bumper looks out of place and needs to be removed .

Re: Weekend at Camp ferocious

hi shebl,the additional lights were fitted by mercedes,so its an issue you should put towards MB stuttgart!!!!

only kidding mate!

i have however just secured a set of 463 F/R bumpers that will sort out the fogs you mentioned.i also have indicator grills,alluminium side steps,and a 463 nudge bar to be fitted soon!


all to be revealed on the picture thread soon!!

Is that your G Huss?

With all due respect I never understood people's desire to fix up 460s to look like 463s. Surely for all the time and effort its easier, cheaper and certainly more comfortable to just buy a 463?

Re: Weekend at Camp ferocious

maxwell,your 100% right,but i was looking at between £12,000-£15000 for a 463 that would appeal to me here in the uk.lhd are no longer allowed into n-cyprus.plus i now own the best 460 i could want and to be perfectly honest the only thing with the 463 that i prefer (personally) against the 460 are the bumpers and nugde bar.but thats my opinion and everyone has their own views and i respect that.

as for the plusher interior and queiter, smoother ride i am not too bothered as my 460 is what it is and i am lucky to own the CLK 55 which no G will ever be!!!!

which is better??? hand on my heart,at the end of the day my 2 G's!!!!!!!
