RE: Mercedes-Benz Offer: Unique SLS 'Experiences'

[RobM77]

Stop moaning guys! Great car, great competition; I'll enter tonight

Mercedes are trying to:

a) Promote their brand. The winner may buy a C Class after being wined and dined by Merc for two days.

b) Promote the SLS indirectly. Supercars become desirable by the desire to owning one filtering up from 7 year old kids to eventually reach the 54 year old fat cat that can afford one.

I am a big fan of these...

Slightly curious fact is that the the carbon-ceramic brake discs on the one that I saw in Geneva at lunch timeappeared to have a mirror finish. Looked quite odd as the body was finished in matt gunmetal!

Got to love the people that are whining.
Yes, it's a promotional stunt, but it's a bloody good price if you ask me.

As said, if you don't want to enter, fine, more chance of me winning!

That car does absolutely nothing for me...

Quote PH article.........
You'll need to be free from 3rd to 5th August 2010, and you can enter the competition up until 19th July. To do so, you'll need to visit your nearest Mercedes-Benz retailer and take a close look at the SLS AMG 'Astonishing Power' poster inside to find the hyperlink required to enter the competition online.


Do you mean 2011?

That was last months experience Bachi, the new one is above....we update them monthly but you're right, this is a little confusing. We'll get that sorted.

I'm not sure that his defence will hold up in court....

But he evaded being zapped by a number of radars simply because he was driving too fast and they were incapable of clocking speeds beyond 200kph (125mph).

So a lot of the boggo repmobiles just can evade being zapped??
Seems quite low to me.

[Andrew[MG]]

[Beefmeister]

Never mind all this internet-trawling and watching videos, THIS is far better marketing for the SLS AMG!
