I probably would of payed that much, it looks pretty good, and its got pretty good wheels on it. Body and paint looks neat. All in all i think you went alright.

i saw that in the trading post. what wheels/tyres have u got on it. i went to bob jane y'day and he reckoned i was wasting my time putting 13's on coz the 175/50 will be gone soon and the other (165/65) will stuff up my speedo.
i got quoted 1280 bucks for a 13" wheel and tyre package with 175/50's.
when u get your license u will have to come down to hobart, i think i'm the only one down this way who is interested in doing up their MB.
cheers,
jono

Nice mags Honda_mightyboy
Hey jono, if you're still interested in some mags have a look at tempe tyres, my dad got a set for his landcruiser for just over $1000 delivered to our door (as you can see i'm on the sunshine coast, QLD)
So 16x8 inch mags and 4x4 tyres would cost a fair bit more to freight than some little 13's.
Tempe are pretty reasonably priced aswell.
Or you could always go ebay.

Thats true, Most of the 13" wheel/tyre packages are only $550. Im looking at investing in some soon hopefully

Im guessing that they will put what tyres you ask for, I dunno if Pirelli make a 175/50 though
