The Pagoda shown on our web site
« on: January 23, 2010, 15:24:47 »
Does anyone know if the Pagoda shown on our web site is that of the SL on display at the MB Museum, Stuttgart?  At the museum is a gold with dark blue hardtop SL with matching blue wheel caps and with the fog lights.  I took a photo of this car last September and it was the same pose as the one showned at the top of the pages of the Forum.  Does anyone know?  Just wondering for nothing better to do.

I produced the layout for the site I think it is indeed the car from the museum. I don't remember the exact source of the photograph (If I took it myself or got a scanned copy from a book) but I masked out the car from the background and edited it onto the banner. I looked at my hard drive to see if I could find the original files but it didn't give me the source, other than  that I think some other member must have uploaded it here on the site.
