What A Beauty!

it is a Mercedes 540K Special Roadster,

what is even more amazing is it is believed to be an upgraded "Blue Goose" - one of the most valuable classic car in the world, when Nick Szkiler, 54, from Malton, North Yorkshire, heard about one in Russia he found the shell of an almost identical 1942 cabriolet Mercedes, traces of the original colour aviation blue could be seen on leading to speculation it may have belonged to Hermann Goering,

in any event only 26 were built and one sold for £4million two years ago, Nick said, "It would take at least a seven-figure sum to recondition it, then it'd be worth £12million." a bit rich for me, but one thing about all of these highly desirable cars and bikes, I just hope they are used, not just put in a museum never to see the road again.
