GTG @ portsmouth on may 16th

Ace car and welcome.

Perhaps you'd be interested in the GTG @ portsmouth on may 16th. It would be nice to see a proper Brabus for real. However, be warned, I will ask you to take me for a spin in it and probably so will others. But I asked 1st :D

I have put the day in my diary! :p

Sometimes it's so hard for me to keep within the speed limits when on the motorway but I do try very hard indeed!!!

The Feds do check vids online. You, your plate and your car are clearly shown driving dangerously in a built up area (with speed bumps ironically) doing burnouts, and speeding etc. I would remove it from youtube or at the very least cut out the most incriminating bits. I think your car is awesome by the way and don't want to see the enjoyment cut short by making the job even easier for the police.

Triumph Herald

Tell us more about the Triumph Herald - I learnt to drive in one of those!! :eek:

Glad you noticed that, it belongs to my neighbour, he is a classic car fanatic, it's realy in good condition, I prefer the Dolomite Sprint myself.

Gosh! How the years have passed so quickly. 8 years ago i bought this car and 7 years ago that i first started posting here about my Brabus SL.

I accidentally came across these old posts after entering SL55 in the search bar. I was checking to see if there were many more SL55 owners who were members of this forum. It was nice reading my first posts from all those years ago. Memories!
