thairish Date registered: Jun 2006 Location: hk/th Vehicle(s): 461: 230ge/swb & g300cdi/lwb | anyone ever asked to rent your g? received the following message on me phone yesterday... "Hello, the old owner of the Mercedes-Benz 230 GE give me your mobile phone number... I'm Andra from Daimlerchrysler Switzerland, Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles after sales manager. My wife and me are coming for holiday in Thailand from 12.20.2006 to 01.01.2007. We would like to rent your 230 GE at this period, and pay a very good price... Is that possible? I call you tomorrow, but can answer m" that was it -- the end of the message was cut off. the guy must have found an old listing on a website and then contacted the p.o. believe it or not? and no, not even considering taking him up on the offer. | ||

No one has asked to rent any of my G's, but numerous people have asked to borrow them, be taken for a ride, ect. The G's are always an attention magnet. | ||
