She's a lucky woman indeed.

I remember the early 1990s when people were disgusted with the R129 SL because it lacked the visual charm of the R107 SL. People said the R129 would never become a classic and all that, and now, this car is on the road to becoming a sought-after Youngtimer.

That's the reason my dad plans on keeping his for a long time.
