120hp, a lot of kerb weight and only four forward gears. But I had an ex- Formula One driver with me, so surely we wouldn't be the slowest car out there? Let the fun begin.

That is almost [racing stuff aside] what my step-grandfather brought back from his '63 trip to Europe, and drove well into the 1990's. He served with the Marines in WW-1, and later, in 1941, he became a Drill Sargent for the US Army, as the Marines didn't accept recruits older than 40. Thus he was involved with both World Wars, yet only served in the first. His Mercedes was his pride and joy, and I was lucky enough to ride in it a good 20 times in the late 60's-early 70's as a kid. The Vertical Speedo/Tach was always fun to watch, and the seats were incredible. I can't say much of the handling, other than it made my dad's Fords seem, um, sluggish in corners. I would later find a similar ride in my parent's Volvo 240 DL, in the mid 70's..

It is so cool to see the old girl "at speed". I grew up in a 220. I remember my father taking the long, slow climbs up Highway 17 from Santa Cruz followed by chaotic down hill run to San Jose with my father's constant stating the cars brakes were overheating. The end of your video was predictable, as our baby blue '65 220 broke several times over the years.

It's to warn people that a car is entering in the pit-lane. You should go to the 24H of the Nürburgring, the beep is constantly ringing, with so many cars in the pit refueling and changing drivers and others cars going flat out on the track along the pit lane, what a show! This typical beep sound is forever linked to the Nurburgring for me.
