Which Mercedes Benz SL Is The Best? w.Sam Bailey | SL Shop

I popped in to see Sam Bailey, founder of The SL Shop. The SL Shop is a specialist focusing on the Mercedes SL doing everything from sales, restorations through to their own restomods. Sam is a serious car fanatic, we don't just discuss Mercedes and the business (although we cover most things you need to know about the various SLs). We also discuss his racing in Caterhams, a selection of the driver's cars he owns (lots of goodies in here) and the fact both of us have chosen an E63s wagon as our daily!

Plenty for everyone so have a listen.

Omanya - Morning On Jebel Hafeet with a Mercedes Benz SLS

If you're on the top of a man made hill with one of the best roads in the middle east at your doorstep..you get up early. A couple of us "photographers" got up super early to drive the road and take some pictures. Lots of fun and the photos were nice too.
