hmmm, SLR, dream!
Probabely I'll see the guys from Maybach-SLR next WE during the Polo tournament in StMoritz, but the SLR is another league, don't think I'll ever have the chance to drive it, but one can still deam

Nice story btw!! Imagine chasing that SLR on a winding road with the AMV8
I guess the AMV8 has no chance against the shark SLR

How did I got the opportunity?
Well, I showed up several times, did some pictures (also at the annual Classic Car Meeting), went there again to bring them some photos I did...
half a year ago I was invited to see the local presentation of the yellow-AMV8, ... and one day, I got the a letter inviting me to drive the AMV8

IMO, to be honest is the way to get something, it will never work to tell them, "my father will buy me that car, can I have a testdrive, blablabla..."
show your interest in the car, be polite, maybe show them some of your pics and one day, they will make you a "present"

It's the first AMV8 I see with different wheels than the stock ones. But I rather prefer the wheels we saw on the V8 Vantage concept, I don't know why they changed them :roll: :x
Me too, like the ones on the yellow AMV8 pic more,
maybe these are the wintertyre rims?
