The Mercedes SLR 722 roadster is a forgotten sportiness |
The Mercedes SLR 722 roadster was something that enthusiasts could have found attractive if it was being launched in India. This machine was something that McLaren and Mercedes created in partnership and their partnership worked well which later gave birth this beast. It was the first ever Mercedes that used to come with scissor doors however we didn't got it in India. Both a convertible and a sporty roadster were just available in one packet which was like mixed fruit juice in one bottle and that thing was lovely about this car.

A roadster is something that always remains evergreen |
The Mercedes Benz SLR roadster that many people might have forgotten but it's sportiness is something that can never be forgotten. When you do open the scissor doors, you will surely think today that it's not very advanced but back to 2008, it was a very advanced car at that time. If you want to have fun then surely it's the roof which you need to open but unfortunately that's not possible in India due to Sun being too much annoyed in India on a majority of months.
