Wow!!!! Droooool. Top car, does it need a new home?

Just noticed... Someone's put the steering wheel on the wrongside???

The 280SL was originally supplied in California.

 

[C43AMG]

Many many thanks for all the photo's, Scott they where great i was there when you droped your camera, i am glad it survived.
Subyland and Mambo many thanks for the photo's of the C43, and every one else who took photo's.
As has been mentioned it did seem more than a GTG, a great family atmosphere and a lot of very nice people.

If there were a cleanest car award, C43AMG's car would be right up there! It looked great as usual!

Glad you had a great day and glad Steve sorted your car for you! Grav put the do together so no credit to me. I just helped with the Steve/mod side of things. Dont you think the trafficmaster woman is bossy!

Its when, the sat nav has a go, the speed detector has a go, traffic master has a go, the phone rings and your wife starts all at the same time. 2 nurofen helps!

 

[saorbust]

Looks like a fantastic day all. Wish I'd made it - next time I think I'm on a promise.

Well done to those that attended (some lovely cars - I think I'm with glojo on my fave) and well done to the organisers.

Hi

Another great GTG. Was good to meet up with people both old and new, sorry that I had to shoot off early but had loads of last minute wedding shopping to do.

Regards
