Update:
March 9, 2007 - Totalled while waiting at a red light after a woman in an Mercedes Benz S500 ran a red light smashing into a VW Toureg in the intersection and then bouncing off the Toureg into my PGL.
1990 PGL
MB S500
VW Toureg
The damage wasn't really a whole lot, just destroyed the passenger door, lower rocker panel, and mirror assembly. And scraped the passenger side rear quarter panel and bumper. But it was declared totalled because the cost of repair was a lot more than the estimated value of the vehicle.
Such a shame too since I just dropped a new engine into it (after 240,000 miles of service by the original engine) and had only driven it a total of 390 miles.

This is my baby! I have owned her since October of 1995. I bought her from another family member so it was in perfect (stock) condition. She has been well maintained by me over the years and the paint is pretty much all original. I often receive comments that she looks 2 years old! Enjoy your stay and feel free to comment.
