Went To Get An Sl. Couldn't Resist An Sc

[Dimmer]

Hello everyone.

Can't wait to pick up my 2002 SC from Cornwall next week, and get it back to Sunny Devon !!

Went to replace my storm damaged SL but just couldn't resist the SC after a long luxurious test drive.

It's obviously blue, but would this be what lexus call Indigo Ink?

I'll post some photos once I get it.

I think you made the right choice. They're quite special and I'm normally a Mercedes fan.

Hi Everyone. Just got back from collecting the new "old girl" from Cornwall.

What a fantastic journey, wafting along without fear of the aroma of fuel or the smell of burning oil, or scary metallic rubbing sounds. (What I usually get with my "weekend cars".

Anyway, as promised here are some photos.

Am I right in thinking the colour is what Lexus call Indigo Ink Pearl?

[IHgs300]

Excellent choice, I like the colour, really different.

[Paul_G]

Beautiful, thanks for the pics.

Ah the smell of leaking fuel and oil and associated bills. I know it well. lol. (classic merc territory).

Your car looks great!!

But you need to be corrected. According to Paul it should be "old boy" :)

Splendid! :)

Lovely looking car Paul. 'Indigo Ink Pearl 8P4'. That cabin is beautifully insulated from the noises, smells etc of the mechanical world, but this is the time of year and weather for problems to show. Bit of elbow grease in spring will clear up your headlight covers. They're a joy to drive. Hope you have many happy miles.

They were designed on the lines of a boat I am not joking they really were) and driving it from the west country at this time should really test its seagoing qualities.

Thank You for your kind words everyone. Looking forward to the rain stopping and the lid disappearing into the boot.
