Jay Leno's Garage is the best motoring show out there. So much better than Top Gear because it's actually about the cars.

Thanks for posting it. Very cool car and incredibly ahead of it's time.

Excellent video. That chap Constantine knows his Benz history. A unique chance to see a motoring icon [ albeit a v8 version] in action rather than simply in a museum.:bannana::bannana::bannana:

I agree with all the above - especially haow knowledgible MB's rep was.
What car was he referring to that RU ran? (JL named it as some 'coupe').

I believe it was a Coupe version of the racing SLR model that won the Mille Miglia not be confused with the similar road going 300 SL.
