Mercedes-Benz 190SL W121 (1956)
I actually met the owner of this 190SL and everytime he was talking, I felt like brutally attacking him like a jealous cougar (yes, cougars have quite the reputation for jealousy. The animal kingdom is a bitch).
I’ve said this a couple of times before and I’ll say it again: portuguese license plates are the best for vintage cars. Those white numbers extrude at about 1.2 inches from the plate itself. They’re gorgeous.

The premiere of the Mercedes-Benz 190SL & 300SL was about to turn a couple of pages in the book of automotive history.

During these past few years I have written so much about the W121, again and again.
For once, I’ll let the picture do the talking.
