    Doh! Doh! Doh!.... well, my last girlfriend was 32 (and I'm 26), so (here comes the U-turn) clearly there is room for the odd exceptional case where the rules may be bent so to speak.

    Chetan Hi,
    wasnt to impressed myself with the 612,so spent most of the time sitting in the CS,they had to drag me out LOL,
    slr was nice even though im not a big merc fan,the engine is the same as the AMG C43's,V8 16 plug engine,we have a cutomer with one,Chetan did you see the exhaust system on the slr with the body removed,the silencers each side are the size of dustbins,looked nice shape though,had a good day,
    how did you find the show,

    cheers
    Dale.

    ditto with the 612

    me too.. not much of a merc man ...but u have to admire that ...it is beautiful

    dale .. when u say u have a client with the same engine...what do u do mate?

    the show .....dont know.. mixed feelings really...some areas were nice ...some totally phucked...the gibbs aquada was very interesting ...would be a nice thing to have in goa..unfortunately couldnt see the live demo..have asked for detailed info and offer though

    did pick up a few f trinkets and books among other bits and bob...however the most interesting thing i saw was the toureg engine model ...was very interesting for a non engineering background person ...for u must have been a deja vu
    regards

    Cheatan im a 24 year's now technician working on all kinds,
    yes i do like the tech things there's allways somthing to learn,when i was on the NGK spark plug stand they had a ferrari F1 engine there so i just had to open the throttles and look at the inlet valves,port shape and size,it just becons me to find out what madness goes on inside a F1 engine,
    realy looking forword to seeing interior picture's of the yacht when you take delivery Chetan,

    cheers
    Dale.

    Have to agree - I thought the 612 was unimpressive in the flesh. Red 575 looked stunning though, and I was impressed at the change of vibe throughout the whole show - live bits, the 4*4 experience in particular - were excellent, the Thunderbirds show was fun (screw Ferrari's, I want a Tbird2), and the fact that you could actually go sit in the Ferrari's, etc was a marked difference from previous years where you needed a special invite just to get close. Much better - they are competing with the MPH0x's and the Docklands show at last.

    Did you guys see my folks there - they are in the same hall as the Ferrari stand, selling mini Ferrari's/Porkers, etc pedal cars - somebody who has a spyder bought one for his son on Wednesday - anyone here?
