Funny though, I never seem to get far enough away to fully appreciate the SL style. To drive it, I go from the interior door from our kitchen into the garage, so I never get more than a couple of feet away from it.

Then, when I park somewhere in town, it's always hidden behind another car or round a corner.

A couple of days ago from a distance I saw a standard early model black SL500 with some 18" rims, and gee--it looked good! Then I thought - mine looks like that! (Even better with the facelift of course).

Might pay for me to get someone else to drive my car while I follow it about and take a good look at it! But then, who can I trust with it!
