As pato said there is an awfull lot of money there. You would never spot something like that around here :cry: Those wheels look really nice on the car cause the ones on the Top Gear test in South Africa looked like shit.

Well, even from the very beginning, Mercedes was saying that there were going to be several different wheel options from something like 18 inches all the way up to 20. The middle-sized set is the ones on that car I believe.

More and more you guys make me want to visit there, hell maybe even move there. I could use a change of scenery and it looks like you guys know how to have fun. I would love to have a go at the sand drags, I love riding the dunes. Never done it in a car though, only on dirt bike and quad. But it is certainly on my list of places to visit in the future.
