Seen this Mercedes 230 SL on our way to Bandra. Liked the wiper layout.

Somehow red does not hack with this wonderful car.

In 1978/79, one person in Bangalore retired from the UN and brought one of these over. Remember his wife (a real fat laby) coming over for a visit in it. Car was later sold to some royalty member in mumbai. It was a 230SL white and pristine
