Only the owner !

Came across a white C250 estate 'AMG Black Series' last night, I didn't know they made one
No picture though, lights changed before I could active camera and lorry is no match for AMG Black Series power!

To be fair the SLK looks a nice motor- up for sale 13.5k ish ...

Forgivable as it is probably owners initials.

Even the SL's number plate is bastardised

He should have changed his name by deed-poll, standards have to be maintained!

Straight on it’s very nice, but still from 3/4’s it’s too big (long) has to be that way to fit the roof in but it’s just a tad too long.

Does look better with the spoiler, breaks it up a bit. (Car equivalent of wearing stripes I suppose)

I see where you are coming from but in the flesh the width carries off the length, compared to the SLK it is a much larger car all round..

Rather appropriate rather than in-appropriate I thought

Just seen the lesser spotted W203 C320 CDI AMG coming off the M53 - no pic as I was driving

I saw the C250 CDI AMG - slightly more common than the C320

Couldn’t get any photos but I saw a CLK200 on UK plates with an AMG badge coming up the A26 on France. SWMBO said “there’s another AMG” so I then had to explain the difference between fake and real ones (like the very nice C63S Cabriolet on the M20).
