Thanks OK, there are several options for this, if you are on the East Coast it is easier and cheaper obviously.

Sure, that should not be a major problem, where in the world are you? US presumably? Peter

PeterQvortrup said:

@quantumorbit

Hi, actually I also own several standard W140 cars, and they also do this when started from cold, it normally stops if you rev the engine slightly over 10 - 15 seconds, I spoke to my J. A. Haynes mechanic and he thinks it is a slight lack of oil causing this, and when oil pressure is up slightlyand the oil is warm it stops. Peter

@quantumorbit
Hi The tappet noise you hear disappears as the engine warms up. It is quite normal on these      engines as they warm up, my E60 AMG, SL60 AMG and CL60 AMG does this as well.

Hi, I am not home this weekend, unless it is late afternoon Sunday, but a weekday is also fine if    that works for you.

1991 Mercedes-Benz 190E 3.2 AMG

PeterQvortrup said:

@MercedesDad
Hi, no, but the car has all the decals etc. from AMG Japan, I have never seen paperwork from AMG Japan on any of the 20 plus AMGs I have bought over the years in Japan, in fact most Japan cars come with little to no paper work.

Hi, the car came only with the wallet and the Japanese instruction manual.

I can post a copy of the UK service done by J. A. Haynes tomorrow.

1994 Mercedes-Benz E60 AMG

PeterQvortrup said:

@Iampwk
Hi, Vat and duty was paid on import, but no further action was taken to register the car as my intention was to ship it to Denmark or Sweden and use it there, if it does not sell that is what will happen. It has been in storage since it had the engine work done, it passed an MOT without comment after the work was completed.

PeterQvortrup said:

@sunriseMB
Sadly no, what i can say is that the car was inspected by J. A. Haynes when they did the work on the engine and they passed the suspension as good as new.
There is no paperwork from AMG Japan, in fact in the 15 or so years I have built my collection, having bought 16 - 17 AMG Japan cars I have not once seen paperwork from AMG Japan.

PeterQvortrup said:

Hi, sure, the car is in a garage near Brighton.
Problem is that I am currently convalescing from a hip replacement, so i would have to arrange a viewing with someone with access to the garage.
I presume you are in the UK?

Supercharged 1990 Merecdes-Benz 560SEC Koenig Specials

PeterQvortrup said:

@MBFahrerquestionable statement in many respects, as all the AMG Japan cars mostly have little to no provenance (I should know i have bought 15/16 over the past 10 years) and AMG in Germany are not particularly good or willing to answer questions about individual cars even the ones modified in Germany.
At the end of the day all these cars are "just" modded W126s as you say, I own a standard 560SEC which has over 400,000 kms on the clock, I have owned until late 2019 a 560SEC 6.0 AMG Japan spec. so I have a pretty good basis for comparison and the standard car is an excellent, durable and enjoyable car to drive, what AMG and Koenig add is rarety, notoriety and performance, and a bit of “street cred” if you like, the Koenig considerably more than the AMG I have to add. 
For me the Koenig is the more fun car to drive, on track it takes corners in a way that the AMG cannot touch for example, it is just as fast as well and the super charger mod is extremely well done, especially compared to the twin turbo version of the same car.
So there you are.
Peter

Supercharged 1990 Merecdes-Benz 560SEC Koenig Specials

PeterQvortrup said:

@NotaSirI sold my 560SEC 6.0 AMG in 2019 for well over $250K it is a great car, but I would personally take the Koenig, it is more fun to drive, as fast, and much rarer.

1992 Mercedez-Benz 300CE 3.4 AMG BRABUS Widebody

PeterQvortrup said:

@emretirasHi, the W124 300 24 Valve could be ordered with either a 4 or a 5 speed gearbox, I  have 4 W124s with a 5 speed gearbox and 9 with a 4 speed box, I used to also have a 5 speed manual, but a lorry decided to write that one off :-( it was my favourite as well. 
It may well be that what was available in the US at the time  was different from what we could order here.

PeterQvortrup said:

@RhinosbI have had several of these cars and they come with either white/clear or orange it depends on which country they were sold in, so I don't thonk there is a standard as such.

PeterQvortrup said:

@RhinosbYou mean the indicators should be white or orange or??

1992 Mercedez-Benz 300CE 3.4 AMG BRABUS Widebody

PeterQvortrup said:

@MBFahrer
Hi, I thought this was explained in the text, but the car was first sent to AMG for the 3.4 conversion, the engine has the 957 code and then to Brabus for the wide body conversion, including the wheels, exhaust etc. whether it is a good condidate for a manual conversion is not a question I can answer, what I can say is that I have the parts to take it back to a genuine original AMG 300CE 3.4.

1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SEC Koenig Specials

@MBFahrer
Yes the kits are available from Koenig, I have a set I bought in case I needed it, but the wheels and various other parts are not easy to find, if you can find them at all.

1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SEC Koenig Specials

PeterQvortrup said:

@Brianpremium
Hi Brian, the mileage on the W140 600SEL Koenig was quite low for the year, about 80K miles, however it had not been looked after at all for a few years before I bought it, so it needed an enormous amount of work to restore it to former glory. I stored it for a few years but decided earlier this year that I would never get round to getting it restored so I sold it to another UK based collector who intends to restore it. In a way I regret selling it, as I will probably never see another one.

1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SEC Koenig Specials

PeterQvortrup said:

@SergeyHi Sergey, again, it is the long wheel base W140, Koenig never did a SWB version as far as I know, at least that is what Walter Koenig told me a few years ago. Peter

@Sergey
Hi Sergey, yes they did, have a look at this picture,
http://nast-sonderfahrzeuge.de/MB-Exotenforum/img/uploaded/image98261.jpg
I bought the W140 Koenig Special on the picture in Japan in 2014, and sold it to a collector earlier this year, hope this helps.
