Bru Govt MB W140:

The king is on a state visit to Thailand. As you can see at the airport there’re are lots of W140s at the background. Some are military, govt official cars. It’s our culture to bend down when shaking hands with the king.



Guess what's waiting for him in Thailand:


ps-I didn't take these photos.Got it from a govt. Website

Just to show lots of W140 is used by the govt here.

Re: Bru Govt MB W140:

Thanks for the replies:

MBW140 are famous over here. They are favoured by many Chinese businessmen. They like to use either gold or silver W140. I don’t know but they say gold colour brings them luck. The Indians, they use the W140 and W220. They think that they are mafia.

Well us Malay, any colour will do except for black. Black car can be mistaken as a govt. official car unless someone notice the license plate. But I like black, plan for a respray to obsidian black.

The king uses the ML55 and the escorts are the W140s.

Hey^ Me too. Especially 20=30 W140s in a line in fast speed. All the other cars on the road have to give way to the convoys.

A powerful BMW police bike will lead the escort.

awwww. That sounds really interesting. Maybe you should ask someone with a BMW bike, and ask them to drive fast infront of you in your W140, and you could sit in the back seat, and be escorted.

I'm pretty sure it's the V8 disco.

The US govt should have given the president a Hummer limo. More sporty and rugged..

BUSH has no taste in cars..but Saddam is.
