Yes you are right of course, highway robbery both sides of the pond, but its swings and roundabouts, I will ask my brother in law to bring a couple of cans over from Canada next time hes over.

I also just purchased a 1l can for my 450sl, £49 from ebay.


The SL has done 154,000 miles and when I do this a bit of smoke tends to come out the back. Will be interesting to see what it is like after the restore.
