If this doesn't make one fall in love with a Pagoda, I don't know what will.  Great Job

Awsome video

It brought tears to my eyes when Mark's daughter got the white car.  

If you are selling your car, get the prospective purchaser to watch the video.  It should be worth at least an additional $5,000 to the purchase price.

I've only watched it three times this afternoon  - I will try to squeeze in 2 more times before afternoon coffee.

Happy birthday.......

will pass the compliments to the author with pleasure. As far as I know the author will be more than happy to have it linked at our site. He owns a freshly restored Pagoda so he understand perfectly well what it takes to represent our bellowed car with emotions and passion.

The video was prepared as a gift to Pagoda owners that gathered today at the celebration of Pagoda 50th anniversary, which was also the first meeting of the Polish Chapter of Pagoda SL113 Group.

I hope that he will use his talents to make a second video about the Pagodas that were at the meeting.

By the way…. let's disclose the name of the mysterious video director and sound engineer: this is a member of our Group…. who you can locate under the nickname Artur :) :) :)
Hope he will post here some thank you words for all compliment he received ;)

Great Video Clip ... Thanks for sharing !

Check Google for Top Gear Season 3, Episode 8 Jeremy C. Talks about a 1969 ... 280 SL and calls it a Cool Car in this 2003 TV show as he takes one for a spin.

Cheers,

just stand still, wait and see  :D

according to some rumors, Artur is planning on producing a follow-up part. Not necessarily a compilation of commercials and "professional" shots, but something original. May not be released soon, as it is a time consuming exercise.

I thought that such a successful debut should not remain without encouragement for cooking up a new chef's special to the enjoyment of the happy watchers  :)
