How does he see out with all the windscreen stickers?

Not sure. I presume thai govt requires them all to be displayed.

Roughly a month ago I saw a Merc 300SL Coupe going the other way on the A421 out by Tingewick.

And almost 2 months ago I got to sit in the Napier-Railton that holds the (kind of unbreakable) Brooklands lap record. The seat is fantastically comfortable at 0mph, but I reckon at 160mph it would feel a bit exposed.

Quite easily, the passenger may struggle though.

Vintage and Prestige Cars
...and it looks like the SS100 has been sold.

Any ideas about this Merc in Canada? I drove passed it so many times but never got a great shot.

Looks like an old, and very ordinary, 190.

I'm starting to really like these sort of old Mercs.

Lovely!

Trouble is, in my mind's eye, I keep seeing them with a V8 transplant from a 560SEC/L and lowered a tad!

Sort of like this..



Does this make me a bad man?
