Love all the Mercedes pillarless coupes, from the old CE/SEC to the newer E-class.

I like this....

Very cool things though - my friend's dad had one when I was a teenager.
I think they would complement the 911 quite well :D #daydreaming

Fun facts:

1. That car was on Collecting Cars
2. That dealer has changed its name multiple times and was once on BBC’s Rogue Traders or whatever that programme was called.

They also seem to have accidentally put a "2" in front of the correct price.

Aerokit is as undesirable on a 6.2 as it was mandatory on a 6.1

I like the colour, would look better on a 964 though.
An absolute unit

1. I wondered, there can't be many the same.
2. I don't know about fun, but certainly very useful.

I once dealt with Andew Williams - formally Williams Motor, then Orion Solutions, and now Dreamspec - https://www.dreamspec.co.uk/

Spoke to him on the phone, travelled all the way to Cardiff to see an SLK55 and he wouldn't even leave his seat or really bother to deal with me at all - or the other bloke who was in the showroom. Just sat at his PC and clicked away. Even asking him for the keys so I could look inside seemed like a massive effort for him.

He's got some serious metal in the showroom - and glowing reviews. Amazing how he's suddenly turned himself around.

£40,040. £40 quid more than I paid 5 years ago for a car with 43,000 miles versus 64,000, with a set of boots thrown in. Result I’d say.

Makes me feel better about the impending RR depreciation and repairs :lol:

Around £42500 inc fees. Fair price in today’s market.

As said before prices for anything remotely interesting have gone nuts. :cry: :? :|

back - awesome.
Front - not so much.

I’m guessing they think the same with the lack of decent pictures of the front.

I’ll still have one though. Grudgingly.

Looks a bit like a futuristic 959 shitting out a 911.
How about not having a sig at all?
