    Concerning the water pump failure: I was wondering if doing donuts in the SL55 was a good idea. That might have blown it. In the E63's of that era, having tight steering angles while going full throttle easily kills those if i'm not mistaken. See Tyler Hoovers green E63 for reference.

    Hi Ed, a little special request if I may. In the early days of Gumball there was a character by the name of Mike or Micky or something. He was a big guy and drove an SL on a number of Gumballs. He was wild on the roads and seemed unique and a tonne of fun. Most interestingly, however, he was the man behind Megaupload -- please find him.

    These rally's are cool and all but some of the s##t that happens at the Mille Miglia is nuts and in much rarer and expensive cars. Well worth a look.
