Yeah, ok then, but couldnt really see the point in taking pictures of an exhaust (well 4 exhausts just to be correct :wink:) - dark now anyway.

I know scoobs sound good in tunnels, but when this thing gets into one it just sounds completely BAD - bonkers noise, bonkers.

Wish they did it as a proper manual :cry:

Currently owned by my best mate. 3 years old, only 9k miles, fully delimited and re-tuned by AMG (over 550lb/ft). Price tba - but it'll be fun this weekend getting to know it, never driven it for a prolonged period.

Always loved this car and do hope that if he does decide to sell then I get first refusal - problem is he loves it too :roll: - although i'd have to be very nice to the bank manager for some serious time.

Needs a good wash !!!

So tempting to take it out but i'm going to be strong and leave it till the weekend, I promised I would after all.

Think feul costs for the weekend will be hard enough anyway - fancy contributing gangsta :wink:

That'll be the McLaren SLR - Bernie Ecclestone gave King Juan of Spain one for free, just for turning up at the Silverstone GP to support Alonso. A different world indeed. Worth 350K :shock:

Gorgeous AMG car indeed!!! A beautiful exhaust note and endless torque.

I used to stand on the bank waiting for the F1 cars to crash into my orange overalls. Frankly it was boring. The highlight was always the SLR going past. That Merc marque can still send shivers down the spine.

My next car has so got to have a proper size engine.

The evo will scoot away from the merc initially no problem then once the evos finished popping and banging its way through all the gears the merc just kinda looks at it in a sort of "are you quite finished now" sort of way and then just rockets - the speed once your over 120ish is crazy.
