Ahhhh the sweet beauty of the modern icon.

here we see the delectable (love that front end!) Mercedes Benz SLK280 sitting alongside the cute (but BITEY!) Mini Cooper S "Chilli".

Neil seemed to like them both, but particularly liked the Mercedes-Benz. perhaps I am finally convincing him it's time to admit that he can spend $100K and not end up in the poor house.

It does however mean his offspring would not find themselves having a drive in Dad's car- and well they might NOT.
