Important question time..... was their parking area used for Meridian Dan's "German Whip" video?
Guess you were writing a feature for someone?

I don't think so, it's very cosy in there with very low ceilings - was there a couple of weeks back and got to go out in a couple of their collection. Won't post the pictures I got as they were mostly of members cars stored there but did get this one at the end of the eve - lovely thing to potter around in.  what did you think of the merc? |

Guess you were writing a feature for someone? I was indeed. That new 'driving the classics' spot in Retro Cars - this month's issue has an RS200, last month was a V12 E-Type, month before was a Quattro... got some cool drives lined up for future instalments what did you think of the merc? I loved it wholly and unconditionally. I've never been so relaxed while driving through central London, you just waft effortlessly and bask in the fact that life can be good sometimes. |

Indeed they are fantastic, I had the pleasure of 'wafting' (as you say - you don't drive these ) around in my uncles for my sisters wedding - been sitting in it since I was 3 when it was stored at my grandparents so was nice to finally get a go on the open road.  Sadly I think it's likely to be for sale soon and I have far too much else going on otherwise would buy it in a heartbeat. |

Wow, I walk past this place all the time, I keep meaning to pop in and have a nose if they'll let me.
I've seen the E-Type smoking around before too, such a wonderful sounding thing.
