It's an S500. You are right, the cover is sitting on top of the cross brace, so there's no way the hood would close. Still, I was curious to know what a Mercedes V8 would look like in there!

Crows seem to have a problem with chrome wheels, they've been squawking and pecking away for two days now.

RonnyA: a neat look it has there. is it as high off the ground as it looks? it seems like the wheels are a bit large...

pic: we put the tarp over it when it rains because it leaks through the back hatch a little and also a little through the sun roof.IMG_20121216_143429.jpg?t=1372025254

Tires was 225/55-17 winter tires, but now I've fitted the rims with some Silverstone FTZ RR in 235/40-17. Anyway i guess I would have to lower it...
