The most powerful AMG Mercedes ever, the SL65 Black, hits London’s mean streets

Posted: 07 Sep 2010

And yet, and yet. For all its too-muchness, for all its bloody-minded, uncompromising bastardishness, there's something magical in the Black. Maybe it shares something with the snow that glints around us in the morning light: uncomfortable, slippery, downright dangerous in parts, but fascinating. You wouldn't want it every day, but you won't forget that one night.
