An old B-Class.
I have it on good authority that those alloys and the floor mats - on their own - make the car go faster. Like a lot faster. The science is complicated but give me a day or two and I'll send in the reports.
and if you can add 'AMG Line" , it is even quicker (I think).

No pic as riding my bike, however in Altrincham today I came across a R230 SL500. It had a Black AMG S badge on the back and 6.3 wing badges... :rolleyes:
It also had a dodgy aftermarket exhaust... it was almost as loud as my akraoppvic... ;)

There’s a LHD G500 floating around Hudds badged up as a G63, he’s obviously tried copying a picture of one but it still looks fake and bounced with the lowered springs ! Why ???

@John Laidlaw wonder where you can get the stickers from? Is it just on factory collection?

Not sure about the next one... @Uncle Benz might be able to advise ;)
