Moving in NOVA Need Some Help!

As you can see by my sig below, I have a small collection of Mercedes. We've been house hunting and will most likely be purchasing a home in Leesburg, VA or the surrounding area.
I don't need help loading the truck or packing, what I need is some people to drive the cars to the new house. Sorry, I'll be driving the Ferrari, but need help with the others so I don't have to make a bajillion trips.
I figure a bunch of you guys in the area could car pool to my current house in Fairfax and we could caravan to the new one. Beer and food on me at the new house. Thanks and let me know. We'll be moving in mid June.

I'll be glad to help with that. It sure beats the hell out of moving pianos upstairs, etc. So, you bought the place in Leesburg?

The one we made an offer on is fairly large with a big garage and a little room to expand the driveway. The basement is really nice and the wife can't wait for me to set up the HD projector again. She's been missing watching porn on a 300" screen.

Hmm. I would drive whatever is most different from my 380SE. But I'm flexible.

The SL600 is slightly different from the 380 if you want to drive that. It may be a little slow to you though.
