Lovin' that panorama roof

Just got my new SL55 delivered from Germany, looking superb with that panorama roof -- kind believe the guys at MB waited until '03 for introducing it!

Yeah, they offered it as an option, but it was quite a bit more expensive on the R129 than on the R230. I believe that on the old one it was a $4k option !!!

What do you mean?

If you mean you have grey sky a lot, I like the fact that the pano roof lets more light into the vehicle. I'm from Seattle, USA, where sunlight is a bit rare. Almost all new homes built here have an abundance of sky-lights too.

The comment relates to the fact that during winter in england it is so gloomy and dark there is very little light to let in!!!
