Top Gear luxuriates in the unbearably sexy glory of Mercedes concept Ocean Drive
Here's a preview of a Top Gear review of the MB Ocean Drive Concept - a revival of the four-door convertible we haven't seen since the mid-60s. Enjoy!
'The only other production car I can think of to have the same guvnor effect is the Phantom'
Rod Stewart is following us. Seen him twice today sloping around Miami in a black Mercedes CLK AMG convertible and both times he's pretended to be looking the other way. But the cockatoo-haired crooner's fooling no one: we know he's been checking us out.
Can't blame him really - everyone else has too. That's because we've been cruising the Art Deco streets, warmed by blasts of hot air skimming off the bath-temperature azure blue ocean, past crowds of walking melanomas, in a car with a more potent sex appeal than all of the gravel-voiced rocker's wives and girlfriends put together. Rod, to mangle some of his lyrics, definitely thinks it's sexy and clearly wants its body.
This object of desire is currently only a concept called the Ocean Drive. But actually it's the precursor to the S-Class convertible - not a Maybach, as some had suggested - that should be joining the Merc line-up sometime around 2010.
