@Geoff Buys Cars, I also drive a £500 S Class that was chipped with straight pipes. So I slammed it, rolled the arches trimmed all offending scuffing noises, painted it matt grey and then matt black and now in the process of doing more welding, roflmao...
Feel your pain. On the upside, this was the funniest video I’ve watched on the channel so far. The very last “shit” before the closing music rolled was comedy gold!
Geoff, You've gotta learn test and diagnostics when dealing with shitboxes rather than just swapping parts. Saves lots of time, cost and hassle. A multi-meter across the contacts of that switch would have told you if it was fine. I see those crappy scotchlocks from aftermarket reverse sensor wiring. Look there. If the loom is damaged or one of those is earthed, it could be telling the car it's in reverse hence no starting! Great attitude, comedy and content though and for me being in South Worcestershire, local interest. Looking forward to more, have subscribed and done bell thing!

Great video, up the road from me, I’m in Cheltenham 👍🏼
I bought one for 8k. Drove it for 10 years. Someone crashed into me. Insurance paid me 8k.
Cheapest car ive ever owned.
Not worth buying old Mercedes Sclass and repair it?
Bugger you really did have a shitty day 😭
Don't keep it or you will be the jerk in the Merc
lol, walks by a rare SL65 AMG rushing to show us a C class ?!?!?
Says a lot about Geoff Buys Cars to be honest!
