    Lovely car. You're right about not looking for perfection. With one like this, you can go out and enjoy it. If it was immaculate, you'd be scared to ever use it.

    Bullet proof straight 6.

    Straight six naturally aspirated engines sound so good.

    Recently bought one of these, 1995 non two tone like this. Also the window regulator has just decided to fail 😐 Suprised how sprightly it can feel at times. Certainly not a sports car but a very well built, very cool cruiser. Will put it away for winter and hopefully enjoy for years to come!

    Would love to buy one of these stunning SL’s if it wasn’t for the effin ULEZ. The 40 year old R107s are now silly money. Great channel Geoff. Am sure it won’t be long before you are upto 10k then 50k subscribers. Good luck and keep up the fab content. All the best.

    Love the SL big time ❤ Mercs of that era weren’t killed by accountants and truly was the pinnacle of German auto engineering! They are some of the very last forever Mercs 🥰😊 Then the accountants got involved and ruined it😢😢

    If the soft top is non-functional remove the entire mechanism for a weight saving of around ~80kgs.
    That'll bring the power to weight ratio above the w126 300se sedan with less power but better p/w ratio. (The reason most people don't like the 6cylnder w129)

    As I said in the respective video...trading your beautiful BMW 528 (Alpina) in for this SL was one of your worst decisions concerning cars ever.

    General, you silver tongued devil you.
    You could sell ice cubes to Eskimos.
    Defo sounding just like Arthur Daily / Herman Aubrey Boyce or even Del Boy himself. 🤣😂🤣

    I have owned one of these for about 15 years now - beautiful cars. But nearly everything this guy is blabbing on about is BS.
    He sounds like the consummate used car salesman.
