The Rally Of The Tests historic car rally held in November 2005
Notes on this classic Mercedes Benz 280SL seen on 13th Nov 2005.
Not a common rallycar is the 'pagoda roof' 280SL Mercedes sports car seen here in automatic guise. This SL dates from 1969. Note the special individual rollcages behind each front seat. A 1967 MGB GT is up front with a Mk2 Cortina Lotus parked in the background.
This picture, of an early 280SL, is photo number 53 of 95 images that I've put up on the site showing the historic rally cars that took part in this event in 2005. Please go to the main Rally Of The Tests photos page to see the other 94 photos! All were taken during a mid-morning stop-over between competitive stages during the rally on Sunday 13th November. The venue was the former secret nuclear bunker at Hack Green, near Nantwich in Cheshire.
