    There are many videos of why Bentleys should not be bought simply because they are 'cheap' - hoovies garage for eg! lol

    I agree though... For Parts, its probably worth it, it must be the cheapest in North America. I am surprised someone hasn't tried to export it.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Haha. Though I believe I know which one he is talking about. I believe it's a convertible.

    And they were also working on trying to get in a Red F430. I wonder if that deal went through.

    Correct. Vert for a vert and from what I was told, the GTC is already sold (nice condition too, interior looks mint)

    We had it listed for $59,900

    I dont even want to imagine what the bill would be like when something major happens if a screen and water pump are $15k. My old neighbor at my condo had a pretty hot wife and she was always rolling around in nice cars, one day when i went to show the place i noticed they bought a pretty nice but used range rover. FFWD some time i went by to repair something and i noticed the range was sitting pretty crooked on the driveway, got to talking to the neighbor and he said the air suspension broke and it was around $5k to repair and they werent sure if it was worth fixing because theyve already dumped a ton of money into it lol

    and I did not have the only say in the matter (most people just want it done ASAP and don't care about quality).

    If anything we made a better decision because we had a consensus and were all on the same page.

    I had a Ford Expedition with air suspension. That broke too. Air suspension is a bastard to fix no matter what manufacturer.

    You can't roll in here with a post like that without pictures of the hot wife.

    What the fuck, man? Haha.

    Air suspension on a Benz is like $10k to repair. Worth every cent.

    Are you sure it wasn't an A6 Audi allroad? Because that's sounds exactly like an allroad.

    Back to topic, someone should buy it and drop a LS into it

    I've been through that (more than once!) on my wife's old GL... F that ever again.

    But I thought you were a proponent of coilover replacement when the air suspension inevitably failed on Benz'?

    Worth mentioning, the Conti will have air suspension too...

    I did a rear air bag on a Grand Marquis and that was about the easiest suspension work I've ever done.

    Yeah, not having the threat of a spring lodged into your throat makes it easier to work on. The allroad was easy, just not cheap.

    And thats 5K per corner. Rovers are never an if, but a when for the air suspension. Especially in winter. The rubber cracks when its frozen and the air bags are useless until fixed.

    Fuck that that’s too claptrap for me. Plus that interior infotainment is garbage and hard to modify.

    Air suspension isn’t a big deal; I’d gut it and run a different management system on those bags.
