Nice car David ... Tell us a bit more about it

How long do you have her? What have you done to her to make her look that good?

How goes it again ... "You all come back now hear"

A few months ago I took a trip up through the hills to Healesville Victoria Australia and stopped at the local bakery for a coffee. Low and behold there was my old Porsche 912 in the same car park! I waited around a bit for the current owner but he/she must have been busy enjoying the food elsewhere. Couldn't help but photograph my current SL alongside my previous 912.

Our 1966 230 SL as we stopped on our way to the south of France, a few weeks ago

When returning last week I spent a pleasant hour being chased -but not passed- on the Routes Nationales between Dijon and Chaumont by a 1966 Ferrari 330 gt 2+2. To keep that V12 behind me I had to lock the automatic in third and use all reves above 3000. The excentric British driver made me stop to take a picture of our cars. I had one of these when I was young, he said. A far better drive than this, he continued, while kicking the back tire of his Ferrari. Then he took off to catch the Calais ferry. This week he would drive his 330 to Italy and back.

greetings,

Erik

I like this one, last drive of the season with my daughter. Hey Milly, we live in the same area, we should get together one of these days! I almost never see another car like ours in the Ottawa area! Beautiful car, colour combo BTW.

Not new but my prefered one so far. The picture was taken during a track day, the story is here: http://www.sl113.org/forums/index.php?topic=15521.msg147912#msg147912

By the look of the photo, I think your daughter has claimed Otto as hers for the future

Hi Garry,
I doubt it: she will become an Adult Woman one day, and the integrity of her hairdo will take precedence over classic motoring considerations.
Besides, unless something happens to me, I have another 3 decades to drive before my mid 70s! By then, I hope she will be busy thinking about taking her kids to Grampa's so they can go for a spin in his old car. He he.
For now, 9 years old, she really likes it. But I will have to find a brake booster solution before I let her drive it in a few years. That is, if the price trends don't send Pagodas into Gullwing territory, in which case I will have to wonder if I would rather have a mortgage and a Pagoda, or no mortgage, no debt and a corvette or something.

Not hijack the thread;But I recently had my brake booster overhauled by Power Brake Booster Co. in Calif. USA very reasonable as it turned out even a few dollars than the $185. USD. and quick excellent service.. Call & talk to Bill at Power Brake Exchange.. ell worth the money & will be done for the next 50 years. Good Luck & Best Regards to you your cutie.

Here's mine.

Shvegel,
I gather that the word "mine" encompasses both the foreground and the background?

Naj ✝︎ · « **Reply #117 on:** November 11, 2014, 15:05:03 »

Here are my favourite(s).
Pictures taken at different MB Classic events by MB Media team.

I have washed the car since...

Great pictures of the car in action! The trip to Italy must have been very nice!

Yes great trip, including a drive down the Stelvio pass and the Mille Miglia Museum in Brescia. It was done on the back of our Euro event in 2012.
3000 miles round trip in 3 weeks!

Naj,

Very nice. All are great --- hard to pick a favorite -- the one with helmet exceptional.

Not sure I've seen a photo of my car I don't like, but here are a few that stick out in my mind...

GGR · « **Reply #122 on:** November 26, 2014, 09:55:11 »

Wow! When is next October Fest? Can they make one in November?

Jkalplus1 · « **Reply #123 on:** November 26, 2014, 13:01:24 »

I also like this one, although the sight of water on my car, even just for a picture, stirs dread in me. Honey, can I borrow your hair dryer?

Rolf-Dieter ✝︎ · « **Reply #124 on:** November 26, 2014, 16:26:28 »

No worries Otto, looks sexy when wet

don't use a hair dryer, it leaves spots
