agreed. Great locationExcellent pics, Karl, very Arty.
Although a schoolboy error on the last image. A step to the right would have been perfect.

Excellent choice and such a lovely looking car

Had the car only 2 months and I have already taken it on its first Euro adventure to the Nurburgring (Paid for photos coming soon, awaiting them from Racetracker).
Video coming soon, I beat my previous 'record' by a min and a half, still looks slow but I had an amazing time there.
30.3mpg over 300 miles (including a stint at 130mph on the Autobahn)

Its no track car really, however I was pleasently surprised as was my mate at its handling. (he has a Megan Cup).
Its around 100kg lighter than the CLS but feels vastly more agile. started to feel the rear starting to slip at Brunchen II, otherwise it held tight on all corners. The active side bolsters actually really work well!

@KillerHERTZ , after a few months how are you getting on with your SL? I'm curious on your views as you can give a good comparison on this compared to other Mercedes models you've owned?

Will be creating an update video soon, been busy with holidays / interviews etc
I took it to Germany and around the Nurburging at the start of September:
forums.mbclub.co.uk
In a nutshell its got the same charactistics as the CLS63 engine/gearbox wise, needs to be warmed up to get the most of it - obviously as its basically the same power chain, obsencely fast, not as thirsty as you would expect on long trips and massively unpractical of course
The car saved my bacon last night as a car in front decided to brake to a stop on a totally clear, visible roundabout infront of me, I briefly looked in rear view not noticing that it had stopped. The collision detection beeped and slammed on brakes.

My SL63 AMG On The Nurburgring | General Discussion
A week ago myself and a mate drove over to Germany for a Lap of the incredible Nurburgring Nordschleife, for my SL63 AMGs first Euro road trip As some of you will know, I have previously taken both of my CLS's in the past and missed taking the G55 for obvious reasons. The video below is my 2nd...
