Yet another HK Mercedes mystery unfolds...
 
Nah I'm wrong - here's a shot I took of one last summer:

The 'biturbo' badge is bigger than I had thought. Yours is definitely an SL65. Yours also has the characteristic mesh grille in front of the wheels. That's SL65 only.

Yeah. EVOs, WRXs, etc. aren't uncommon here at all.

Sorry Cheyne, did I just wreck that for you?... :D

No, you're good. I only posted it because last time there was a Yellow Evo V in the back of one of my photos and Rue said that it was his favourite Evo.

Honestly, I liked the Issel Blue Pearl paint which came on the VI :sly:
 
Give me a Scotia white one and I'll be your best friend!

it looks like the safety car,if you look at dougs pic the side bumper vent is black,whereas on the 55 is a "slit" and not a gap as such which is what it seems to be on the one you took a picture of.

Guys, that's Dandelion Yellow not Lightning Yellow. :crazy: And Scotia White has nothing on Dandelion Yellow. :p
 
You know im pretty sure you can have that bumper as an option out of the factory for the SL55, i snapped a few (blurry) pics of one a while back which has the same bumper as Rues spot.

The Aston-like rear on the Jag is pretty well designed, but those headlights DO NOT belong on a Jaguar.
Even if they were pretty (they're far from it), they wouldn't belong there...

But great spot on the car nevertheless. 👍



PS: that guy needs to be a better judge of his car's size; the rear right tyre is 'misplaced'...

Thanks.:)

 
Normally I wouldn't post a pic of a Corvette post 1982 but this one has to be. The exhaust was so loud it was just cool. Not to mention I really like the black rims.

 
Yesterday:

Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph (Phantom predecessor)
 
Awesome spot on the BMW, Doug.
Do you have the original (big)? I'd really appreciate it.

At the time I wasn't into taking car photos. That photo was taken back in late Spring 2005. So it's been a while.

Hope this works:



Flash went off and kind of wrecked quality but it's big!
 
Cool, thanks!
Don't worry about the quality, I'll photoshop it a bit and it'll be just fine. 👍
 
Don't know about "Good" as such, but I saw something unusual this morning - a 1997 Toyota Prius, which I didn't know existed... exactly the same as this one...
