Dad bought an SDL

My dad finally bought a great car: a 1987 300SDL. Basically everything was rebuilt on it, only thing that doesn't work is the heated seats, but my dad doesn't really care about that. It has around 112K on the odometer, but you wouldn't believe it when you look at it. We're getting it in 3 weeks, will post pictures when it arrives.

I went out yesterday where my SDL is stored until the winter is over and just sat in it.

I LOVE MY SDL!
