Correct, 1958 300SL Convertible, I thought they we're closer to £900,000.

Windscreen replacement.

Under the cover in the background is an SLS and behind me was a 1957 Gullwing 300 SL
 
My brother-in-law has three 300SL convertibles like that one. He restores them.
I didn't realise they were worth so much.

I've not got any pics of them as they were under covers when I was last there. Here's a much later 280SL that he recently finished though.

The old Merc SL's are stunning, that 300sl ragtop is beautiful. So is the Pagoda Rilot posted.

The 3 best looking cars of all time IMO, Merc 300sl gullwing or soft top, E-type soft top and Aston Martin DB5.

Why do people spend so much on making a car that's focused on being cheap to run look like a performance car. The thousands you've spent are pointless (IMO).

Now this is a proper car. Quite terrifying working on it knowing its value though

Stunning. The 300 SL has always been my favourite car, roadster or gullwing. Not going to lie it brought a tear to my eye the first time I saw the latter. Truly the greatest car ever made.

I think it's an ever increasing case of thinking the next bolt in bit will really make it look much nicer, in their eyes, which then just spirals out of control.

What amazes me is that their friends and family don't realise or tell them? Or maybe it's the case that you don't want to be the person to pop their blind dream?
