Not for me, I am not yet middle-aged nor boring enough to even vaguely desire a merc

May I respectfully suggest you go ride while you still can. They are sorting your zimmerframe as we speak

I'm willing to bet I'm further from middle aged than anyone else in this thread

I just have bad taste

Perhaps we need a strict membership critera to be able to post on this thread!

Indy will have to be an honorary member, as he has a land crab

You mean the vehicle favoured by the gay set of Ponsonby road? Yellow a must?

How interesting. Is there something we don't know?

What size tyres do you run these days? The 175x13 was only used on the 1800, Triumph 2000 and Mercedes - and in the days of NZ made only tyres, they were often hard to find.

Running 185 R14's (it's a cross over model I think from Mk. I to Mk. II - which had 14" wheels)

My late brother had a couple of these at various times, as well as several Jag MK10, 420,420G, and reckoned the Wolsely was quicker point to point than any of them.
