Sorry Kevin. So ... are you going to buy the Lambo to replace it or are you looking at something else?

We're waiting with baited breath. Of course, we'll brush our teeth before we come over to see it . . . .

sorry for your lost, you should take both money claim and your 560SL, that way you have a part car for your next 560SL, i would have gone Awall on that dude if he totaled my 300SD.

That sucks, but something like this will ease the pain!

I sold PP the 560SL and it was not easy to do. It was the "Toy car" to my kids as it was so much smaller than the wagons the kids thought it was a toy. I have three boys and even the wife was okay with me owning a SL- God Bless Her and driving it in NY all by my lonesome. There is just something about a nice 107, and I'm glad I had a chance to be a part of this one's life.
