Such a smooth and restrained lap, so much mechanical sympathy and awareness of other drivers. Beautiful to watch! Sounded great on the approach to Lauda Links too!

500 SLC.......the coolest Paris Dakar car ever, driven by Jochen Mass

@DennisfromMunich 2 года назад

What a beautiful and smooth lap. Perfect driving and those old luxury Coupés by Mercedes are absolutely impressive. Such refined, quiet cars. Amazing engineering.

@ahemgee9542 2 года назад

The lack of any squeaks and rattles in this 41 yr old Benz really show display the build quality of old traditional Mercedes Benz 🙌 . Also that M116/7 V8 was a peach...of course the M119 DOHC in the R129 I have is legendary though.

@hamzasherazi9334 2 года назад

Proper baller mobile. Big big fan of the older Mercs and tbh even the newer ones. Have to say that his driving is very good considering he drove only 12 laps. The 'def' button is probably for the defrost.

@ahemgee9542 2 года назад

Correct

@terryl1061 2 года назад

What a beautiful classic . 41 years old barely any creaking or rattles. That dont make them like that any more. A lap like that you really get to see the beautiful fall scenery at the ring.👍👍

"Wafting" immediately comes to mind. Such a great and relaxing lap.

I can't wait to see the SLC from Mechatronik ❣️ They built one with modern AMG Engine manual shifting and carbon to make it lighter ❗😲 I think next year, they show it when it's complete. They want drive it on the Nürburgring and take time... Sorry for my English I'm German ❕😂 Love from Berlin, Ramsi 😘

@crabapple1974 2 года назад

Beautiful car! Really smooth driving. Quiet but when putting it down you could hear that v8 waking up from its slumber and reminding you Mercedes racing history is not forgotten in this car.

@joaolima9819 2 года назад

Fantastic video. This particular series of SL/SLC is a particularly beautiful series of car. Timeless design. Beautiful forever.

@tony66au Год назад

I bought my Wife a 72 350 SLC (3.5 D jet) as an anniversary gift and she loves it, Got to admit im also very fond of the C107 and in setting up to replace the Bosch D jetronic with Haltech engine and spark management because of modern fuels but the drivetrain and suspension is phenomenal on the 2 lane mountain roads. The 3.5 revs quite a bit better and refreshed she should be a lot of fun, I have W116 S class cars and they too with the SLS rears are quite capable at high speed touring but the C107 is made for it :-)

@ukwan Год назад

The thing a lot of people don't get about these old Mercedes is they were designed to be fast and comfortable and they're surprisingly capable cars but they're also nice and soft and comfy at the same time, a good set of tyres, pads and discs and just go have fun and enjoy. They're also rock solid cars and extremely reliable on track.

@svhellas5408 4 месяца назад

That car is still the most successful rally car ever build. Still holds the record of appearances to winnings.

@sheldonaubut 2 года назад

Love those Mercs, but the highlight of the lap was the close captioning. I had accidentally turned it on as I do use it on this channel sometimes but the amazing thing was that every time he accelerated the CC showed *MUSIC*. I agree that sweet sound was music but I'd never seen any other car generate that caption.

@fsjgw 2 года назад

@@jasper5097 oh no a Tesla Fanboi is hurt. I'm an enthusiast something beyond your comprehension level. A tesla has no heart, no soul, no BRAKES!! A drive is more than the sum of parts of the vehicle you are driving. It's how it makes you feel, obviously the point of this video! And your inability to understand that is reflected in your comment. How many video's of Tesla roadsters do you see driving the ring posted. A completely forgotten pos. So a Plaid with no brakes , nothing stimulating the senses other than quickness. It's something a fanboi such as yourself can't understand. I'll quote Jay Leno (even though you will not understand what the quote means). "It's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than it is to drive a fast car anywhere near it's limit." Try & figure out what that means. Enthusiasts understand what that means.

@matgee8892 2 года назад

I still think the M5 should be capable of having a cruise lap with 3 friends on the way to dinner. Some mild upgrades would be great but keep the interior and the comfort as much as possible. You already spend enough time in ridiculous stiff and fast ring tools so why build another one?
