I guess it's not at the top of a new SLS owners priority list, but the the boot space in the SLS Mercedes I tripped over this weekend was saddly lacking:(
It seemed to have been hijacked by diff coolers and pumps!

We were all in Dubai for the 24 hour race. Mercedes with three SLS racers and Lotus with a single Evora. Both cars managed 3rd in thier respective classes, but the Evora from the back of an 88 car grid as we did not get the car until just 12 hours before the race due the air freighters managing to loose the car.:eek:
I seem to have specialised in re-uniting famous names with famous marques recently. I had a Brundle in a Ligier for the first time since the early nineties last September, and this last weekend a pair of Mansell's in a works Lotus for the first time since their dad was in a Team Lotus F1 car.
The boys done good!:)

I want your life!!:)

Are you sure? 18hr working days when its going well. Thursday got to bed at about one in the morning, up at six, mad rushing about, spend 24+ hours sitting in a sandstorm on a pit wall. Collapse into bed after packing up on Saturday night at about nine (that's awake for about 39 hours:o) Then up at six to fly back with what appears to be most of Asia trying to share your airline seat! Oh it's proper glamorous!
As my race driver friends say "The tarmac is always smoother the other side of the armco".....;)
