Another UK car arrives - Tellur/Berry/Umbro

Mine arrived for use from Jan 1st

It's Tellur with Berry (for some reason MB in the UK show this as an unrecommended combination). I also opted for the designo umbro interior as I was not too keen on the tin foil look. This was meant to delay the car but it added zero time to the build.

Options are Keyless, Nokia 6310i, Distronic, Comfort, Linguatronic, Tyre monitor, Panoramic, TV, Garage Door, Umbro

Roll on Jan 1st......

Pics follow....

looks good - any shots contrasting exterior to interior, and of your trim?

Great pics mate and proof that departing from MBs colour recommendations works if you have a good sense of colour balance. Umbro/berry interior is an adventurous choice but a highly successful one.

Odd that they would say this color combo is not recommended as the press SL55 photos have it (see attached).

PhucNguyen57,

It's kinda hard to get decent pictures as the garage is pretty cramped, and it's winter so the cars aint out much. The guns are not real by the way, no way you can have that sort of stuff in the UK, Texas maybe . The are just the airsoft ones made by Marui. Good fun though

Here's a quick pic I took. 9 Hrs till the first SL drive...

Davidxxxx, it's a small world, I'll drop you an email....
