I couldn't think of a better title!

Obviously not taken today. It's been raining all day!

Was it 67 or 78 of the RHD 3.5 cabrios they made? Either way, it means your Pagoda has to be a relative "daily driver"! Lovely driveway. Mine has a 15 year old c-class on it!

Thanks James,

these guys reckon it's 68

Which means if i hold onto it (which i'm determined to do) It might one day be the only car i have ever owned that actually goes up in value!

such a nice and distinguished family that you have there. Would they be of British origin, that would be almost perfect... but I would not blame you, sharing the Pagoda addiction disease

I am assuming the 280se is from the UK, haven't the data car for it but will get round to getting it soon. The 280sl is a US car.

Old motors are definately an addiction which need to be kept in check.

Pagoda is sooooo much prettier from behind.
