SL zero doubleyaa
Now I have had a chance to really get my foot down, I am going to re-name
my SL63.........SL zero doubleyaa or SLOW for short!!
Hope it gets quicker when it loosens up.

No no, I still love this car, but I was getting confused with the speedo,
it goes 120 and then 140 so I was mistaking 120 to be 130!!
I must admit I need reading glasses so allthough my vision is perfect through
the screen the dials are a bit fuzzy. I would still rather have this car than
my CL65 or my SL55, if I want some torque I can still drive my S600.

Hi, the speedo goes up in 10mph sections until it gets to 120. it thens goes
in 20mph sections. I knew where 140 was so I was confusing 120mph as
130 mph. Stupid idea, should be left in 10mph sections all the way through.

If you set the speedo to digital read out it's easier, which I should have done.
However I have no other way to tell how fast the car is unless it reaches
a certain speed. You can get a gut feeling and extremes will tell you, however
take my CL65, it was so quiet it's not until you look at the speedo do you
realize how fast you are going.!
