Lets see your AMGs

Thanks buddy, did you attend? We were looking for you, it was a massive event. 🙂
We did, I was looking for you. I spotted @Skd884 car but I didn’t see either of you. I was in the black ML 63 today. We were parked in the third from last row, probably 80% of the way down the line, at the opposite end to the catering area
 
Sorry missed you there, need to coordinate next time. Hopefully we can take our mbclubbers too with us 🙂
 
Got some boots fitted today.

Had a wonderful opportunity today to drive a piece of history. The owner of the tyre shop allowed me to drive his cherished 560sec. My first impressions were impressive for a 30 year old car. The accelerator pedal felt very heavy compared to modern cars, drive was also a bit crash bang over speed humps but very smooth on flat roads. Acceleration is sharp and gear shifts were smooth. Around corners it did feel a bit like a barge. Overall very good car and fun to drive 🙂

A lightly modified 560 SEC on modern wheels would definitely be in my dream garage. I looked at one 10 or so years ago. It was cheap even allowing for the condition........but it was just too much work for the spare time I had.....
 
Was surprised how quick it goes and the brakes were pretty good too. The indicator stalk was on the right hand side, but that wouldn't take long to get used to 🙂

Both cars are looking tip top! New shoe day is always a good day (I need to get out more) but driving the SEC is a cherry on the top 👍🏻
