John, I grew up in Wimbledon. My father once owned a 280SL in a not dissimilar shade of blue to yours, and he now lives in Kingston!

Wonderful place to have a wedding, congratulations!!

Rahul,

Thank you.

The car is a 230 Black and we also live in Kingston / Coombe Hill . Maybe good to catch up with him to discuss cars!

Congratulations John. Great to see your car looking pristine for the special occasion.

Would be nice to catch up at The Bromley Pageant of Motoring on the 11th June if you can make it ?
