I bought my first MB in Dubai in 1983. It was a 1976 280slc with about 15K miles. I brought it back to Texas, along with a '73 BMW 3.0csi, had them converted and sold both before returning overseas.

In Nov. last year I got a 1977 450slc in near mint condition. I use it as a semi-daily driver. I turned 60 last March and an now officially a menber of the Kellogg generation. Its call that because every time you stand up you go Snap, Crackle, and Pop.
