Success at the Mercedes-Benz Club Concours

We took the 190SL to the club concours; it was entered in class 5 which covers 300SL, 190SL and Pagodas.  The weather was really changeable and caused problems for the judging.  Outcome for us was great as we came first in class which was fantastic.  Not many good photos of other vehicles as we couldn't get away from the car and no hood down due to the rain.









 

Out on the road for a test drive

I took the car out last weekend for a quick test drive, she looks stunning!

At last - on the road in the UK

I collected the car today after completion of registration in the UK following agreement from HM Customs and Revenue that they had received the correct amount of tax on import.
Drove her home in the first thunderstorm of the year with the unrestored hardtop on, thankfully no leaks. More pictures to follow shortly.
