Unexpected success at the SL day held at thge Bicester Flywheel event

The Mercedes-Benz Club held part of their annual SL weekend at the Flywheel event held at Bicester heritage.  Great combination of planes, classic and sports cars. Great to see Sir Stirling Moss being driven around a temporary course in one of his old competition cars.
Having thought it was a show and shine it turned out to be a judged concours with various classes of SLs being judged.  At the end there was no winners sticker on our car so we continued to look around at the other great cars and winners.  Winners' cars were called forward to receive their trophy, a nice touch.  Just before the end we were asked to take our car into line - turned out we had won best car in show. Really pleased!
