Mercedes SLR spotted in Sandton, South Africa

Details on This Mercedes SLR:

  • Location
    Sandton, South Africa
  • Description
    I was walking up this street and I though I saw a glimpse of an SLR so I quickly ran towards it and it actually was! It is one of only 3 in the country! The owner was just climbing into the car when I got there so I asked if I could take pictures and he said no not with me in it and then just jumped out the car for me to take a picture haha. So I just took 3 shots and let him go, nice owner though. The lighting and shadows were terrible but I hope you guys like the shot.

Haha that is a pretty good idea, just have to know someone in the licensing department to get it registered :D but I'm sure there would be a way to do it

Haha yes I do . It quite a good investment . Have a look on eBay . They go for around R3 million in the US . So , why not bring one over cause you are more likely to double you money

Thanks guys!
Cops aren't that strict which rich supercar owners as Benji said most times if they get pulled over its for them to take a picture with them

its not such a big thing down here to drive with no plates. just get a small fine and thats it, if anything at all, most of time cops will just take pics of the car
