For followers of Bring_A_Trailer I've discovered sorry news.
Bruce_M was a frequent seller of Mercedes V12 products among others.
Sadly Bruce passed on in mid-December. I bid on a few of his vehicles but being frugal, ( ok too cheap) I never won.
He always sold his cars as no reserve. He was remarkably witty and never shied from criticism.

For an individual I never met, I was very saddened and deeply touched to hear the news.
