picking

Didn't someone ask me to pick some lottery numbers back in January?

If I had this thing, I'd probably see how often I could use it by buying yet another old diesel Mercedes.

This thread has reminded me of the pictures Delibes put up in his epic thread of a Mercedes SLR transporter

http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/events-gatherings/295832-300td-road-trip-european-life-open-travelogue-27.html





To my eye it looks a bit goofy - I'd prefer the Unimog version - though I think chazola is onto something if that other transport comes fully laden (who wants a poxy Gullwing anyway?)
