Is there a classic Mercedes meet somewhere west of Calgary today? I saw 3 Mercedes 300 SL's on the highway, 2 gull wing door cars and a convertible. Sorry, no pics.

Yes, it was a gathering of the Mercedes Gullwings. They had 32 cars at the Banff Springs Hotel yesterday. Most of them drove up from the US.

I went up for a look around - someone suggested the value of the cars in the lot was $68M! :nut:

I was on my way home from Montana yesterday and saw about 6 of them heading back into the USA.

That's a lot of money in cars at the Banff Springs. It's also wicked to see that they are still driving them and not storing them in a warehouse.

Huge gathering there this weekend. A great chance to see some once in a lifetime cars.
