Hi Mark,

John is very generous with his praise in the above. In case it is useful to you, here is a link to the thread covering the Royal Barge (a 1980 244 GL) and the Barge (a 1983 GLE):

The most expensive problem to fix will be rust - mainly in the rear end (rear wheel arches, boot floor, spare wheel cavities and sills). Fortunately both the RB and the Barge were pretty sound in this respect, but lots of interesting stuff came up during my ownership of both motor cars.

Good fortune,

Alan
