The wafter
Buy one before every one else does.
Found a 2 owner 62,000 mile example locally at sensible money with full detailed history.
Fantastically quiet and smooth, Stu the merc man, loves working on R129s.
She and me, and my weimaraner waft down to SW France in real style.
HUGE boot with or without the lid down.
smooth quiet and pretty quick.
30 to the gallon unless you are being very playful
Hardtop is a masterstroke, turns a big rag top into a couple.
Aircon is just amazing.
Still pulls hard well into 3 figures.
They dont make them this well any more
