Happily retired

How often to you go to the salt flats so that you can use the 7 miles to get to the 200mph you claim, some of us have cars that can reach that in a mile so slow old bus is my first comment on your car. When are you going to get something fast in your stable. WELCOME BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Porkie yes as the std ride height is dreadful and does not help the handling!
DMS lowered it via some jiggery pokery thru the electronic ride height control, my std setting is now how you see it, really does sharpen up the handling!
Get the DMS tune...fook me does it make a difference!!!

Rod you do the sums 600/600 in a mile not 200mph but gotta be 180+ after that event i can put the roof down and go to a swanky nightclub in London.....your Saff will need a strip down to check all is ok and then on a trailor to Sid'd Cafe for a burger

Nice collection.
Love the SL55 AMG, came back from germany in a similar spec one (JJ's mate Anthony) and it really did effortlessly cruise at 180mph.
Amazing how well they handle for a 2 tonne luxury car as well
Brakes arent upto the job (especially as they get used a lot by the stability control too) for track driving but thats not what these cars are about and on the road they are just awesome.
