that would be cool. I want an E38 7 Series as well. Those look like very nice BMW's. I would want one of those alongside my W140.

Re: Bru Govt MB W140:

Yeah. I was driving back home. Actually, that was my little cousin. I bring him to a fast food restaurant.


They are about 50-60 Sprinters around. They are used by the Shell company to transport workers.

Oil and gas comes from my hometown.

RE: Bru Govt MB W140:

Most of Bru's oil is offshore. So the van picks them up from their house and brings them to the small airport where the shell helicopters are based. The engineers have to work one week offshore and parking their car at the small airfield lot for a week would not be a good idea. They get one week off though.

^^^^^^^

Those jobs are very very dangerous. All of the sudden, they can fall into the ocean, and no one will know until the week is over. I would never want to work for that job. They are very dangerous.

Re: Bru Govt MB W140:

I wouldn't mind working at the sea in the future. For the extra $1000 allownace.I think it's worth it.

I know it's dangerous. Many local don't dare do the very deep diving yet. So they employ some Texan or Italians to do the job.
