I did myself the favour to buy a Pagoda a few years ago. This car is stunningly beautiful (it does not really show in the clip) and can be used in today's traffic without any limitations (not a given for a classic car). Feels at ease on the Autobahn at 100 - 110 mph but also in the city. Admittedly a 300SL Roadster has a stronger motor but you cannot drive a car that cost the equivalent of a sumptuous house without strong restraints.

Nice surprise to find such a good, long clip of my favorite classic car. The lines of the Pagoda are stunning and always catches peoples eyes - back then and now.

i drive a 190E... its the first MB i have owned... the problem with having one is that you are never happy anymore when you get behind the wheel of a car of different make... superb is but the understatement...

Wow! I thought that was a model car on a tiny platform until the man walked up to the car, just looked too perfect.
