Driving near Lambo Bham today (in my 5-series) tyburn Road for any of you whoe know Bham well and what do I see pulling off a small side road? An Orange G SL....it didn't have a front plate and had a trade plate hanging from the rear spoiler that was banging against the car as he tore off!

My GOD does that car sound good, I mean I nearly sperm in my pants!!!

Maybe the car that was at the FoS?
Can't believe there would be that many SL's here yet!

Definitely agree with you on the sound, as it went up the hillclimb it was incredible!!
Massive bangs and cracks on the overrun as well! cloud9

Saw a grey one in London on the A4 last week.

Trade plate on the back and a HR Owen showroom plate on the front.

Stunning.

Was the grey one that went up the climb a press car then?
I didn't realise they were that many already in the UK!

It is a factory car - RHD but Italian plates
Same car that was in Arizona for the world press launch
I had great fun revving up that car on Friday - think it already had 7,000 km on it

I spotted one of these in Latvia a couple of weeks back. I was surprised at how much more coarse the engine note was. Not a fan of the styling though frown
